Google's Sponsored Link thing - GoFuckYourself.com

Those money grubbing bastards at google....

the way they have the sponsored link thing set up now, there is no way that 99% of surfers are going to notice that the number one search result at the top of results is a paid link... and the dim greyed out "Sponsored Link" thing is all by itself at the extreme far right.

Sad thing is that they will probably get worse with that kind of stuff as the internet matures....

Considering they can basically do what they want, I think they pretty much have manners. could be a lot worse
