Do you know about the search Bombs? I already wrote an article about the “Google Bomb”. There I had mention about the “Google Bomb” which was targeted to the US President George W. Bush.

Few years ago, when you search the word "miserable failure" in the Google search enchine, the results shows the US White House page carrying Bush’s biography in the first place.

But after Google found about that bomb they had defused the indexes which were assoinated with the word "miserable failure". Not only thy had removed the link, but they had also change the indexing algorithem of there search engine to stop such mass link pranks from working in future.



But a search in Yahoo, now shows the US White House page carrying Obama’s name in the top. That is Obama now inherits all the links containing anchor text with the words “miserable failure” in them. That is all those links are acting as votes saying that Obama should rank well for those words. What a funny :)
