Colbert Once Again The Greatest Living American

The Greatest Living American SERPS 09252007
After having his site taken off Google for the term, "The Greatest Living American" for being Google bombed to the number one spot. Stephen Colbert is back with a vengeance. The Cobertnation is now winning for the term "The Greatest Living American" both with and without quotes. I guess Google's work around for Google Bombing isn't working again.



Update 10.01.07 Looks like this was very short lived. Google updated the day after I posted this blog. I also fixed the typos. Sorry to all who were offended over two typos.

George Bush No Longer a Miserable Failure

At least thats what Google not says. Google removed the link to the white house page of GW Bush recently as the number one hit for the search "Miserable Failure" They have also undone a few other Google bombs such as the one that was making the site for the movie "Super Size Me" win for the term "McDonald's" This looks like a crack down on Google bombing in general.

Also the White House has changed the URL for the target link from:
http://www.whitehouse.gov/president/gwbbio.html
The old link redirects here:
http://www.whitehouse.gov/president/

I used to think that the people at Google have a sense of humor. This change seems to have a human hand to it. It was good while it lasted. However they still keep the term "leave" results as Disney.com Most porno sites link their "Leave" button on their splash page to Disney.com. So it looks like they don't have this feature fully fleshed out just yet.


In case you don't know what all this Google bombing stuff is about, I have it explained here
