QUOTE And the best of them all, is when you type in Failure and the first option is george bush. That one made me laugh for weeks. While searching with the Word "FAILURE" Still Google is listing White House’s official biographical page for President Bush. Google's official blog says why the search results shows like this QUOTE Googlebombing 'failure' 9/16/2005 12:54:00 PM
Posted by Marissa Mayer, Director of Consumer Web Products
If you do a Google search on the word [failure] or the phrase [miserable failure], the top result is currently the White House’s official biographical page for President Bush. We've received some complaints recently from users who assume that this reflects a political bias on our part. I'd like to explain how these results come up in order to allay these concerns.
Google's search results are generated by computer programs that rank web pages in large part by examining the number and relative popularity of the sites that link to them. By using a practice called googlebombing, however, determined pranksters can occasionally produce odd results. In this case, a number of webmasters use the phrases [failure] and [miserable failure] to describe and link to President Bush's website, thus pushing it to the top of searches for those phrases. We don't condone the practice of googlebombing, or any other action that seeks to affect the integrity of our search results, but we're also reluctant to alter our results by hand in order to prevent such items from showing up. Pranks like this may be distracting to some, but they don't affect the overall quality of our search service, whose objectivity, as always, remains the core of our mission.

Haha! I really liked the answer to life the universe and everything. Google calculator is very cultured! I'd heard that Bush one before though. I also enjoyed the French Defeats one, I think it's funny because we're used to seeing our typos corrected in the "did you mean..." instead of something like that. In a way it puts the idea of French victories amongst typos! Very good.

Those are all funny. I knew about the George Bush faliure thing, but all of the other ones are completely new to me. Did you find all these yourself or just collected all of them from different places online?

Yeah that is really funny, but when you type in failure and you get george bush there is an ad in the side that say why the result s like that. I bet the president made google put that in there or something because it look pretty bad. But still all those are hilarious and when I saw them i laughed my head off, i wonder if those same keywords will work if i use them in a noter seers' honing lets say MSN or windy, or yahoo or something, im going to try that right now!

Apparently Google has gotten rid of the google bomb for "failure" and "miserable failure". The biographical page for George Bush no longer shows up at the top of the results.

use before the invasion of Google? I remember using a site called Metacrawler and that it
