We have all heard the terms 'Google Bowling' and 'Google Bombing' and depending on your level of integrity your view of these tools may vary. One seeks to build up your own ranking or destroy the ranking of a competitor. The other is used to tie a person, organization, entity or idea to a negative term. Effective, yes. Odious, absolutely. And the common knowledge of these two tricks is immense. But are they still in use beyond the few anti-social web denizens that travel the information superhighway.

Do you know anyone who has been 'bowled' or 'bombed'? And if so, what did they do to overcome it. Time to tell some war stories and share with the group.

Nice post
