Google Bombs Away for New Year's Day!

So thanks to Julie and Jennie I've become fascinated by "google bombing" again. Google bombing is the act of linking a particular word or phrase to a particular site so that when you search google using that word or phrase that site rises to the top. It only takes a few sites or blogs to make that happen. This is why when you google the word failure or miserable failure the whitehouse.gov bio of President Bush pops up first (just below it are Jimmy Carter's bio and MichaelMoore.com).

So, I want to try an experiment. Hmmm... how about best band ever? Oh, well yeah we're not... but it would be pretty nifty to see that pop up on Google.

Now, I will link it a few more times from other sites and see what happens. I've found Blogger is actually the best way to get into Google's directory though. So: best band ever, best band ever, best band ever, best band ever, best band ever. There, that oughta do it.

Stay tuned. Oh and try linking that to http://www.knapsackheroes.com. Humble boys are we.
