It seems that Google bombing isn't going away. The internet nerds are
all doing the dance to make Stephen Colbert the Greatest Living
American. In less than two weeks the position for the term "greatest
living American" in Google has gone up to the number one spot in Google
for the www.colbertnation.com. Now I am sure Stephen is a great guy,
but is he really the greatest living American?
The cool people
over at Digg seem to be getting behind this Google bomb of "greatest
living American" so they can win the top spot for the term in Google
for Stephen Colbert's The Colbert Nation - www.colbertnation.com. As of
today The Colbert Nation only has spot six in yahoo, spot two in MSN
and its not listed in ask.com on page one at all. However the number
one spot in Ask seems to be the Google bomber:

Notice
that the SEOMOZ.ORG site has a good Header with the title of "Greatest
Living American", keywording of the term "greatest living American" and
it has "greatest living American" in the URL as well.
This
proves to me that Google's removal of older Google bombings were a
limited manual process to appease President Bush, not in anyway an
improvement in their Search Engine. It also shows the power of one way
linking. Google needs to start working on their code to keep up with
ASk.com now. I think they are getting away from being a leader in good
search and trying so much to be a profit machine. Maybe we should
Google bomb Google as "talentless hacks"(the first Google bomb) and see
how quickly they fix the Google bombing issue.
I bet Stephen
Colbert loves being the greatest living American on the internet.
Stephen Colbert might be the best fake Neocon Demagogue but he is not
the greatest living American. Why can't I be
the greatest living American instead? I like to think Eddie Van Halen is
the greatest living American. Or maybe Micheal Moore is the
greatest living American.
