I think it's great that they're doing something so obviously common sense. If anything undoes Google it will be their dogmatic approach. Blekko can exploit that

- Zakuzaa 16y agoThey should publish the list of blocked domains and let people decide whether banned sites are really spamy.
- viraptor 16y agoI believe it's here: http://blekko.com/ws/+/topspam http://blekko.com/ws/+/topspam Although that includes some "normal" sites too that simply prevent crawling.
- duskwuff 16y agoIt still ends up including a lot of legitimate sites I recognize for crazy reasons. The main DNSSEC site, dnssec.net, and he security blog dshield.org are both apparently "mfa" ("made for adsense"), the musician deadmau5.com is "spam", and boonex.com, the author of the Dolphin CMS, is a "malware-domain". With that kind of hit rate, I have to wonder how many of the 1.1M domains they banned were errors. :/
- robryan 16y agoYeah there is really no point taking exactly the same approach as Google, maybe Microsoft have the resources to do that (although still a long way back) but for a startup I think it would be impossible without some form of new take on things.
