I bought a Nexus one recently and while browsing for apps on the market saw many apps just listing every keyword from the dictionary in their description to get some keyword juice. Its similar to the keyword list you find in CL ads. Of cour

I don't understand why Quora is given attention at all. I asked a question about the efficacy of various ad providers on facebook and got no replies. The surprising part was the question got about 4 views. I got better replies on reddit. It

Going by what MS says, its clear why Google's experiment worked. They came up with very unusual queries for which by definition there will be no data to generate search results. So out of the 1000 inputs only the one input from Google is pr
