"As part of my Compete: Google Keeps Stomping The Others In Search Traffic article earlier this week, I posted the exact rules that Compete uses to calculate search share, along with commentary on why digging into this is becoming increasingly important. A reader noted the rules didn't seem right."

Interesting linking habits over there at Search Engine Land.

In this article, Techmeme and Techcrunch gets its (probably) zillionth link from SEL even on a side note to the story.

At the same time, the protagonist of the story, the guy who actually noticed the regexp issue is not linked at all. Bad usability, bad manners.

I agree sza... I was surprised by this as well, and commented the same over at the original post at http://sphinn.com/story/53527#c45458
Personally, I thought a link, or at least a hat tip more than "a reader" was called for.
