Great $self->patOnBack() but web spam is a huge unsolved problem that hurts Google's core business and is possibly the biggest threat to their revenue and market share. It's also the biggest opportunity for innovators in the search space right now.

- omarchowdhury 16y agoThe spam problem will always exist as long as search engines are built to index and crawl as much as possible: someone will adapt to get their spam into the system. It's evolution. And the only "innovators" in the search space are at Google, since they're the ones who HAVE to adapt with the spammers, it's their problem.
