Google’s official blog today had an interesting post about its stance on Googlebombing (where a group of people get together and raise one result higher by linking to it). They specifically were reacting to how if you do a search on Google for “failure” you’ll find a page about George Bush.

UPDATE: this post originally appeared in 2005 (I didn’t remember it from back then). Turns out that RSS kicked out a new version of this post. Both Bloglines and Google Reader users saw it again (that’s where I saw it).

So, this is actually a bug in the RSS system.
