Google marries Digg
Ivan | Thu, 2008-07-17 08:53
Google is experimenting and will soon launch a new social bookmarking and commenting service that is much like Digg, but will work on any keyword. This may change the way SEO is done and I can already see hordes of fakers trying to manipulate the system.

Any system where people vote on what appears higher on a list is bound to be "gamed" by people. The fact that this will be a Google site/feature means that TONS of people will be "cheating" to get their stuff ranked higher.
I'm not a huge fan of the "social" trend going on right now. It's easy to ignore most of it. But with Google getting involved, you almost can't ignore it, and we'll be forced to put up with any ill side-effects.

I think Google is smart enough to separate this service from their SEO programs.

Google always has to stick their nose in everything... which isn't necessarily a bad thing, if done right.
