caste football removed from google?

[Colonel_Reb]

Good points Riddlewire, and I'm glad that we are coming back on the google scene slowly but surely. I did everything I could to try to get someone's attention about it at google, but I was never able to talk to a human. Not knowing much about search engines and their regular practices, I wonder if they clean their indexesfrom time to time?

Yeah I thought the site was shut down by...well your guess is as good as mine. That's why I've been MIA. I finally googled caste football last week and it "magically" appeared.

Also can somebody please tell me what is a Googlebot?

You don't need to go through Google to vist Caste Football. Just type in the url, or bookmark the site, or go through another search engine.

So, I guess the saga is over. The site can once again be accessed using google search terms. We'll never know if this was intentionally done by someone at google. I do remember when the Michael Savage website couldn't be accessed with google search terms. He made a fuss about it on air and it was fixed within a day or two. But he has millions of listeners. I don't trust Google.

It's interesting what happened with google. I did type in white tail backs, most of the articles where about deer hunting, but this ESPN article by a black woman came up number 2 on the list

Whatever happened to the white tailback?

I do like the idea of typing in the URL to youtube videos and other comments, so people can be lead here.

Good one jaxvid!

Glad things are back to mostly normal now. Kinda scary and unnerving around here for awile since all this censorship crap started up immediately after Obama got elected.

 

[Colonel_Reb]

Yeah 301, it was almost like a co-ordinated attack on our freedom.

Reb, that is what it seemed like and maybe it was. It seemd surreal for something like that to happen just hours after that fool got elected.

This seems like a particularly relevant article. Unfortunately, it is written in the all too common modern English style. In other words, it's a jumbled mess of laborious prose that is nearly impenetrable to those attempting to derive meaning from it. The English may have invented our great language, but they will surely be the death of it as well.
In short, the article examines Google's policies for determining search results. Of course, Google's byzantine language is also to blame for the perplexing nature of the policy description. From what I can tell, Google is trying to play the typical liberal "Everyone I know" card. As in, "Everyone I know voted for Gore, so I don't understand how Bush won!". Google says they will change search results based on a "consensus". But they don't take into account whether or not that consensus is really just a flood of angry Kos posters who decided to knock a website out.

Monopolies are rarelyhealthy things. The solution is for people to begin using other search engines more and thus lessen Google's influence. It's hard to change habits though, as I reflexively Google all the time without even thinking about using a different search engine. But if Google does enough censoring of sites it's bound to take a toll sooner or later.

I've been using Ask search engine for a while now. Because I am in the computer field, I end up helping friends and family with their PC's. I always change their homepage to Ask and tell them it's a much better search engine. Most PC users aren't savvy enough to notice any difference in search engines anyway. They just use Google because they follow the leader.

Ask actually has features that Google doesn't have, like giving a sample of the homepage without actually going there.

I believe it is back up. Just did a search and it was there.
