Google to pull all adult sites
 

would've posted this in the SE forum - but seemed to affect everyone:

Noted in an interview last night with Serg at Google - They have decided to only provide "G-Rated" results in their free listings - will start pulling all adult sites over the next month - sad day for those politically correct idiots - Yahoo here we come!!!

Really???
That is big. I wonder why the hell they would do that. It seems like they are cutting their own throats. I remember way back when. AOL decided to do the same. And there were nothing but problems. People trying to find information about Breast Cancer found nothing.

Oh WTF
Nobody should be able to participate in April Fools festivities. I am not going to believe anyone today :)

I don't think so...
 

unless this is a joke I doubt it. i just talked to a friend of mine who works at google and he said he hasn't heard anything of the sort...

Here's a link to some of their future plans Google's future

This is just in!!

Webmasters will have to pay back every dime they ever made with adult sites!!!


or is this one a little over the top :)

You almost had me there Linkster :D

I heard they were going to delete all .com domains that didn't have dash's in them :D

That sucks |angry|

Is this an April fools day joke? It is right?

Damn I haven't even finnished my first cup of Java yet, so brain isn't fully engaged.
April Fools jokes suck

Damn it Linkster... you scared me with this one ;)

bastard i went and took a look in the SE forum,

that was a good one

Had me for 1 entire min.....1 very stressful minute.......

damn u!!!

XPorn

damn, i was actually excited... i love yahoo >:)

Technically it was after 12 O'clock in the UK when Linkster posted that :)

I heard World Sex just bought Google.

Good 1 Linkster! that sounded all too plausible..... Definitely better than the average message board april fools post :D


Q. How do you spot a webmaster that relies too much on Google?

A. Watch their face as they read this thread for that tell-tale... "O.M.F.G.... what will I do for traffic next week?" look ;-)

Just wait till all the board scanner programs pick it up LOL

I was expecting this sort of behavior today, or I would have fainted dead away. :)

Not that I'm all that dependent on Google (though I do quite well with 'em on some very choice search phrases). but just because the Google folks always seem to make smart choices, so far. And it should be clear to anyone looking at the bottom line $$$) that cutting off or ghettoizing Adult simply doesn't gain enough extra income to justify it. Press release moralizing to the stockholders is fine, but stockholders and employees can't trade in those press releases for cash, and as Disney realized long ago, those bluenose fundies don't patronize the businesses in question anyway, so screw 'em - they don't get a vote. |rasta|
