An interesting (well, to me) observation is that the Google site uses links to Google search results for some of it's "key point" references.

One of the results includes an article on how to "Hack Google" to improve your position in search results. A plausible explanation is given that by linking to this Google page or by including text references to this Google page (because it's an unusual search key, but is getting a lot of hits) one may improve their own "hitability" (i.e. make the pigeons peck their stuff, so to speak). At least three other sites have already appeared in the search results cited by Google apparently by applying this information - and I didn't look beyond the first page of results.
