Google has also pushed their agendas via their search engine, such as promoting Wikipedia, Nexus One, etc. SEO is hocus pocus. Companies can pay a ton of money to Google and be on top of the search page for their keywords. It's that easy.

It'd be a shame if they give it too much weight though... It might be the difference between walking from one snowball stand to another, just because theirs tastes better. Google is becoming spammy though. It seems they give too much weight to keywords located in domains and URLs. I've seen it frequently when researching common web technology, where all of the people doing it know SEO. Wikipedia at the top of every search is getting old too. Seriously, make an 0ff-link on the side or something for that. If I wanted Wikipedia that much, I'd get it myself or have the default search engine in the corner of my FireFox be "wikipedia" instead of Google. Oh, and Google along with some of the other search giants need to start incorporating something like "mcafee siteadvisor" into their results and stop giving top #10 results to dangerous websites.
