Surprised but, you can find a Mahatma Gandhi image replaced with google logo in fewer continents (depending upon your timezone).
It is amazing to find, the first 3 top news results appearing only from 1 domain, appears to be from India (is it because Mahatma Gandhi was from India) ?

Suprisingly all this article written are appearing to be 2 to 3 hours ago (according to different timezones)

Smells fishy, google accepts this kind of crap on TOP news results ?
(targetting multiple long keywords only for 1 main keyword for same domain) !

Yes stuff happens, and after making this thread, those results disappeared and now displays 3 different sites :=)

I was just wondering as Mahatma Gandhi was born on 2nd October, there were more then 30+ junk articles made by the site I have seen in top on news results and as well google search results.
They were targetting each and every common term associated with Mahatma Gandhi.

Gandhi or Mahatma or Mahatma Gandhi born
" history
" death
Who is "
etc.
etc.
etc.

This was really wonderful cause, I ask myself why only this site was on top ?

Guess - Google owns a search engine used by 80+ % of web users and now instead of sending this users to another sites, google better plans (hidden) to make there own web properties and give users what they seek....
Use google for everything.. eeks, I will have to work for them one day ?
