What bugs me about this latest G* incarnation is how blatantly they are pushing aside organics and quality sites in general, to direct their own visitor traffic to the paying ads.

And this surprises you? I've been saying this for a while, but Google is public company and they answer to profit. They could care less what a group of Webmasters think as long as the sheep using their search engine are still clicking. The average searcher does not know the difference between a paid ad and an organic ad, nor do they care. This works in Google's favor.

There are many webmasters who have wore the Google shades for so long, they just can't accept the fact that Google is just another corporation out to make a profit.

Some of the post here just crack me up about how Google would never do that, it's broke, just sit tight..etc...

Wow, reality sucks doesn't it ;)
