[Gwennie!]

I've been thinking about how this bug could arise. They're spidering/indexing process would have to be fairly screwed up for a version skew of the content.

It is clear to me now that they index the text of the link to the page along with the content of the page. The spider grabs a forum index page with a link to last poster of "Gwennie", by the time the spider follows the link it grabs Wolf's profile page and associates the link text with the wrong web page. Since Wolf's profile page out scored the Gwennie! profile page, it is apparent that they put too much weight on the link text. They have plenty of tuning to do.

Those of us that have been search engineers before the Internet came along don't use these crutches like these newbies. Pure linguistic algorithms don't use link information, but rather find documents that are related because of phrases that they share.

Sorry, folks, I'm just thinking out loud here and I thought their may be some interest in Search in The Internet forum.
