Seo1,

I know of forums that add 100,000 posts or more per day.

One must be carefull not to paint every one and every site with the same wide brush.

Google isn't smart or stupid it is a public corporation.

Google's software has holes large enough to drive 18 wheelers through. It can't even keep sites straight.

[webmasterworld.com...] messages #6 and #7, and there are at least 5 others.

You couldn't make duplicate home page content and interlink sites as fast as Google did. It looks like a mass classical hijack.

reli,

The book you are thinking of is Mythical Man Month by Brooks and deals with IBM's OS/360.

If Google ever settles down I might get a chance to play with that OS again. I have a copy on this system somewhere.

Andem,

Don't have a clue about what is on your site, however Google says they look for value adds (How does an automated system determine that?).

This is akin to design for the visitor, a lot of things you do for the visitor can result in other problems.

Good luck.
