Google Blog Search Problems

2006-02-17 10:08:25

OK, Google blog search is rapidly becoming useless.

I just did a search for "kayak.com" to see what blogworld
thinks about our new CMO hire. The top 6 entries are all
fake blogs. They are all like 2 days old with a bunch
of generated SEO-spamming crap text and links
to kayak and a few other travel web sites.

How hard is it to make google blog search IGNORE
blogs that are less than a week old? Or have only 2 entries?
It's like they're not even trying!

The sad thing is that most of them are on blogger.com,
so clearly the human detector thing has been defeated.
