Several blogs<\/a> are reporting<\/a> about Google experimenting with Digg-style voting of search results. What I found intriguing is the URL of the experiment<\/a>. Here it is unhyperlinked:
\nhttp:\/\/www.google.com\/experimental\/a840e102.html<\/strong>
\nLook at the last part. It reads “a840e102” which looks like some encoded message where the engineers are trying to convey their world dominance. Here is a screen shot of an analysis of probable meanings. I like the cannabis one :D)

You can read some of them as: <\/p>\n

    \n
  1. A twice the dose of cannabis produces 100 times better search experience<\/li>\n
  2. A unifying-democratizing way of producing a 100 times better search experience. Just like the Tibetan script Phagspa<\/a> unified the various languages<\/li>\n
  3. 840 is one<\/a> of the smallest composite number with 32 divisors. Shows the technical prowess of one of the algorithms employed in the experiment or maybe just dump of a highly complex issue in maths, just like they used the value of Pi in their IPO<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
