Once a blackhat SEO manipulates/games the results to display a desired Google Suggest result, the unpopular suggestion that was manipulated into the suggestion list will almost certainly first become a "popular" suggestion. With all the brilliant PhD's running around Google Labs, someone from the Google Suggest team really ought to read Robert Cialdini's classic behavioral psychology book Influence (see Chapter 6 on Authority: Directed Deference) to learn how others can be manipulated into behavior by false displays of authority. Google Suggest is flawed, encourages manipulation, and is a very dangerous weapon that can easily and recklessly abused by competitors in hand-to-hand combat. This kind of issue is screaming for attention from U.S. DOJ, FTC or State Attorney General(s).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-73382954594903883232009-02-17T20:16:00.000-08:002009-02-17T20:16:00.000-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03057556409064250789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-41608276281830132572009-02-08T00:13:00.000-08:002009-02-08T00:13:00.000-08:00Many times Lifehacker gets the story via GOS ;)Many times Lifehacker gets the story via GOS ;)Ortzinatorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02635579996967281806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-34284881092558032092009-02-07T18:15:00.000-08:002009-02-07T18:15:00.000-08:00It doesn't matter where it comes from Alex brings ...It doesn't matter where it comes from Alex brings it quickly.
