Great - another example how Google snipers traffic away from webmasters:

1st: a live ticker with all the news links to the google permanent pacman url, pushing down the natural results by around 200 pixels

2nd: a link to an ad laden site with doubleclick ads (who owns doubleclick again?)

3rd: more pages with heavy (maximum allowed) google ads in the results

4th: NAMCO (Bandai) the inventor, seller (and copyright owner, I guess) to the original game can not be found for either "pacman" or "pac man" on the first 2 SERPs - and they have the domain pacman.com, btw.

what a search engine - sorry to be such a whiny jerk, but I wonder, if that playful corporate culture of G is getting out of hands?

P!
