Picking up on the Expelled Exposed meme…
According to Seth Finkelstein, I’m not a Googleterrorist:
I’d say this isn’t a “Google-bomb”, since the target site wants the high ranking itself. And Google’s algorithmic changes to defuse the bombs aren’t applicable here, since the words appear extensively on the site.

Bill Gates on free software…sorta:
“There’s free software and then there’s open source” he suggested, noting that Microsoft gives away its software in developing countries. With open source software, on the other hand, “there is this thing called the GPL, which we disagree with.”
