So this means google did something to make it happen? Which means they can and are in control of what website should be ranked first? Scary ;-)
Ofcourse they did. it's obvious that the ppl who made it can manipulate it.
Is Google going to be another Microsoft that we all have begun to hate so much?
I don't think so. Google uses open source software. Probably it's just their way of expressing what they feel about the entire SCO issue.
Points to ponder huh!
