Liane, it's not mr Hess (ouch, that's a German nazi), nor mr. Ess, but Henk van Ess.

but then again, we aren't supposed to be privy to it. According to Google Guy, the page is protected and marked "Google Proprietary and Confidential"

Google sure knew what to expect in advance. On May 24 I wrote to the press office (for another story) and ended with a PS:

PS Will contact you in two weeks about Google Evaluation Lab.

Only one week later (now you see how untrustworthy I really am) I wrote:

Here are my questions:

1. How many international agents do you have for Google Rate Hub?
2. Do you pay them $20 an hour?
3. Do you recruit through Monsterboard and universities?
4. Last time (Google Hacking), you told me:

"We index content that we find posted online through an
automated process of crawling the web"

Eh... but why the human evaluation then?

After that question, Google Guy took over. Debbie Frost wrote to me:

Hi Henk,
I believe Googleguy has already responded to the story you submitted to
Slashdot.
