So Google makes an algo that puts wikipedia at the top of all the results. But questioning the the wisdom of this algorithmic choice is off the table. So they say, "Whoa. Look at that site at the top of all our results. We made them that big with our traffic. We should have a site like that, and then we could be there, instead. But we’ll do it right this time. Our way. And put our ads on it!"

We had trolls now we have knols. I love the ’make money off dumb people who would write free for us’ strategy... It’s the essence of Web 2.0!
