Heh! Good analogy. I once saw a cartoon that showed Greenspan eating in a diner and a reporter was standing outside the window saying "That's right, Brian, he ordered white bread, NOT wheat.!" The TV in the corner of the diner had a wheat futures chart from some financial channel, it had been trending up but now showed a horrendous nose-dive in wheat futures. Same goes for GG here, I guess it's to be expected.

Handy then that he is quite senior in Google - rather than just someone who works in the mail department... thats said - im sure he is here for a good reason - this forum provides feedback from the top guys in the SEO business - and he gets to see the results and opinions of many hours of analysis - new ideas, thoughts, improvments - as well as a market understanding... im sure he feels it very valuable to being here - even if he has got to choose his words carefully!

<<he ordered white bread, NOT wheat.>> Hey, white bread's made from wheat also. But I digress.

>He mentions "secret sauce" as a metaphor for the G algo, and now that term will be a new catchprase. The fact that he used a phrase some others of us had, which we stole from McDonald's, isn't significant. Unless of course Google starts calling their algo the "secret sauce" on their website. ;)

McDonalds uses "special sauce". Of course, Google has served trillions and trillions, while Mickey D's is only in the billions.

I do not believe that GG is google worker. But we can test easy, I executed GET request to http://www-sj.google.com/$$$$$-here-secret-word.html This generated 404 code, If google will post the secret word from error log, in this thread, I will believe and confirm.

GG = Alan Greenspan? Does that mean that several times a year CNBC will show him walking down the street to the tune of "Mr. Big Stuff"? Wouldn't that be a thing. :->

HGP = His Googleness Posts ;) What about presenting a WW sponsored tie to GoogleGuy? Imagine him dressing this tie short before an update ... "Well, boys, now you'll be roused up!"

I just came back from a quick lunch at Mc Donalds. Great sauce they have...then I read this thread. There was a guy at the next table, secretly hoarding little packets of sauce..he wasn't wearing a tie...
