Title: Google(Try it!)
Post by: Kramy on December 11, 2003, 12:12:57 am

Hey, a friend of mine just sent this to me, and it\'s a fun thing to try...

Go to www.google.ca (http://www.google.ca)  and enter in the search box \"miserable failure\", then click \"I\'m Feeling Lucky\" 8o wow!

Whoever made that page really needs to change the keywords. :D

Actually, this is a scenario refered to as \"Google Bombing\".
When someone (or some people) create many links to a page using a certain phrase to describe it.  In this case, the phrase was \"miserable failure\".

It\'s just a project to spam Google with political opinion.  Anyone famous enough is susceptible to this, including Planeshift.

it even works for .co.jp and other foreign etc...
The Majority of the first links put up by yahoo.com/co.uk/etc..... also come up with the same thing.
