Thanks for the link John — I’d register and do it real quick right this moment and hopefully score well but wow.. The contest rules are a few pages worth of reading. I immediately backed off… Will give it another shot in the morning when I can make sense of everything 🙂
After about 2 or 3 questions I started wondering why I had done this. 2 or 3 more and I broke it off, thinking I do not want to go anywhere where anyone might ask me such stupid questions.
I personally think that this – http://blag.xkcd.com/2008/12/03/some-lists/ – is a more impressive ability related to search. The author and readers of XKCD find hilarious phrases that have no results in google.

I think this more “SEO geek”. I’m running an experiment on my blog for research purposes, paper due in pretty soon 🙂
It actually asks you to perform searches on Google – it has been reported by 90 something % of people to be super hard.
Good, that’s what I wanted.

“open to legal residents of the U.S.”…scared of a little international competition??
Thanks you very much. It is powerfool and very nice. Thanks you again John Battelle
I did it, but I got the same grade as I used to get on my AP Calculus tests in high school. That’s definitely not a good thing.
