innovative spam technique

[victor]

(I tried to add this to the previous asnswerbus thread but it's closed).

Answerbus seems to be generating a page for each query attempted and adding that page permanently to its site. Try these in google to see what I mean:

site:www.answerbus.com "not sure what you mean"
site:www.answerbus.com "possible answers"

I found the site by accident because a "not sure what you mean" failed search page came up near top for a keyword search on Google.

This is a form of spam that has been noted in a previous thread (can't find the reference). If we all generate a new page for every search done on our sites, I reckon the web will be doubling in size every few months --and 99% those new pages will be completely useless spam.

Not a happy vision of the future :)

Not a happy vision indeed. But these searches are the funniest thing I've seen in days. Here are some of my favourite unanswered questions:

How do you remove blood from carpeting?
Are cats better than dogs?
How many calories are in one fudge brownie?
How wide is a bob cat?
How do I shear an alpaca?

Thanks for the links.

"How do I shear an alpaca"

Hey now, the answer to this question constitutes a significant portion of my main site!
