Google has been testing the "bounce rate" in Google results for a long time. They do that three different ways. Google Analytics has "bounce rate" as a top level indicator in the main dashboard. Google tracks everything from JavaScript from Google search results. Worse yet the Google toolbar tells Google everything you do even if it is not visable in your browser, or even when you are using a browser that it is installed in. Now let's go one step farther with Microsoft... Microsoft buys Yahoo, lock stock and barrel for the $33 a share offer. Who does Yahoo own? Why is Microsoft NOT interested in Digg? Why is Google suddenly making all kinds of social bookmarking noise? Everybody says I am crazy but I saw the light long ago. I put these pieces together 6 months ago when I joined SMC. Now that they are pretty obvious I am talking about them more publicly. See ya on FaceBook, David! <em>Chris Lang's last blog post..<a href='http://www.keywebdata.com/?p=131' rel="nofollow">Google Dumps Digg and Walks Out as Acquisition Seems Near</a></em> Once again it looks like Microsoft is chasing Google.
