Some interesting comments have been posted to that blog.
And of course some off-topic ranting. The original WSJ article shows how easy it is to put together a newspaper article of people's gripes. Which is not that surprising after eight and a half years of Wikipedia. But no way does it do a good job of identifying what is going on, in terms that stand up to analysis. And I mean something intermediate between sweeping generalisations and anecdotal evidence.
Anyone else feel that Mr. Murdoch's little list beginning "1. Trash Google rather than actually noindex News Corp's pages" has Wikipedia as alternate new source somewhere on it?
