April the First!!! LOL :)

It is not organic if it is paid for.

Google are only so big, (huge that is), because of organic free listings which give Google content that users are looking for.

I'm not surprised that Googles greed will screw the small business web business owner. History shows us that many other search engines and directories have fell to greed which has caused every one of them to go out of business or to lose the majority of their market share! This may be a joke today but I bet that google will soon repeat this history of greed and topple over!
