It's great if I want to google "bold n brazen"--I especially like picking the images search for that one--but if I want to research something like "Sony HDTV XBR40V ratings reviews", all I get is shit. 500 sites that have google-spoofed and will sell me that model TV for 30 cents less than the next guy. They toss in the word review and rating (and the rest of the dictionary) so google picks it up. Or they save a step and cut a check to google. Is Google the new mafia?
That said, can I be friends with your friend?

I represent a couple of online retailers. All of them pay google for placement. All of them get very good at figuring out what words or combination of words will get them the most bang for their buck. I've been told "Las Vegas Hotel" was never worth the money.
