How about a brief run-down on how this works? Because I couldn’t find the words “miserable failure” anywhere in this document.
Hmm. I wouldn’t have picked you for the “quite upset” column, Nancy! People are full of surprises…
Wait a minute, you misunderstand, I wasn’t challenging the accuracy of the description. Just the technology involved. If you search Google for a phrase, aren’t the hit documents supposed to *contain* the phrase? Yet, this one doesn’t — so does that mean that someone at Google is playing a joke?
The most important factor are the webpages that reference the Bush page. Google works on references, not words on the page. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miserable_failure. This hit was artifical.
