IDblog ... an information design weblog

December 05, 2003
The opposite of miserable failure

Ouch! Poor George. First there was moveOn.org, which has the right wing concerned (see Salon.com's MoveOn moves up for more).

Now, the weblog community is adding insult to injury. Taking Dick Gephardt's commentary (picked up by The Atlantic), bloggers are taking advantage of Google's search algorithm so that links like this one -- miserable failure -- make the president's official bio the top site returned by a search for 'miserable failure' on Google.

BTW, the first site returned on a search for 'weapons of mass destruction' is still online.
