http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/ easily brings down this bogus claim. I honestly don't think much would change even if they did open-source their PageRank algorithm because the people willing and able enough to exploit it already

I am going to extend the discussion by asking this, how do you recognize a good programmer who wasn't born from the culture of academia? The only reason I ask is that I consider myself a late-bloomer, and after reading Coders at Work (w
