It a shame that Google is stressing new exciting content. I thought the internet WAS a great place to find information – not just current but also legacy.

Simply put, if linkbait falls in the forest with noboday around to hear it, does it make a sound?
I’ve used up my daily analogy AND my mixed metaphor quotas in one YouTube comment: impressed?
