George Bush Google Bomb

Recommended Posts

You may recall that, some time ago, typing the word "failure" into a Google search box would return George W. Bush's autobiography as the first result. You may also recall that Google "overhauled their search algorithms to break most Google bombs." Well, not exactly.

 

Try this out. Open Google, and type in "worst president ever". When you hit the search button, you should see a few results for websites that intentionally slander the President. However, look at about the 5th result (this should be just about the last result without scrolling on a monitor at 1024x768 resolution.). It is Wikipedia's page about the President of the United States, George Walker Bush. Nice one, Google and Wikipedia.

... you're kidding, right? Hillary and Barack are both Democrats, and McCain is the republican. Hil-dog pretty well dropped out last Saturday, leaving the race as Obama vs. McCain.

-shruggs- I always thought google displayed stuff that got the most hits first. So that would make a lot of sense. ;)
