Interesting... it seems he's more specific than usual. At least I'd never heard him previously mention Google uses more than one algo. It's not a major risk revealing this, however, because that type of bombing isn't very common. The two cases he cited, furthermore, were for entertainment, not commerce.

This makes me wonder if the first googlebomb algo sometimes catches too much identical anchor text that was intentionally placed by the site owner, too.

Not sure. That would be like Google giving out new info on the 950 penalty... which is one of Google's most closely guarded secrets. :/
