How good is Google in determining if text is logical?

... In fact, there were at least two sets of guidelines. There were General Guidelines, and Side-By-Side guidelines (one of the rating task types). There were also a number of tasks with more specific guidelines and experimental tasks which changed each time.

I'm pretty sure the current contractor is Lionbridge.

I'm still digging through my old files to see if I've got these documents anywhere, but regardless, if anyone has specific questions, I can probably answer them. The job was extremely repetitious, and I remember it well.

Surely if they wanted a serious way to judge text content they could just analyse the amount of different types of words in one sentence to determine the weighting of adverbs, nouns, etc? Might take a long time could be affective?

Scrapped sentences still keep this balance right IMO. It could find out "cut" sentences.

To the OP:

If you are using this content / pages for a linkwheel or such just for SEO purposes, I would just go for it.

3rd tier.

I used to work for the Google Rating Projects - where Google employed thousands of human beings to look over websites and decide if text made sense or if it was just keyword spam - or plain useless. Google laid off 10K people two years ago from the Rating project and removed the wanted ad from their site - but I was told by an employee that a version of the rating project still exists, through a different contractor.

Wonder why the project died out so suddenly? (if) It could be because:

1. Google had no money (Google has a lot of money so no)
2. Proceed data was enough to create mega-spam-killing algorithm
3. Google's realized task is too big ever for them

Interesting, veeery interesting...

did you review the site in a browser or look at the code?

What do you think this is the matrix? :Yahoo_29:

I'd love to know the answer to that. I do know that the job was always a temporary one year contract for everyone who ever worked it - and that people were routinely laid off and replaced. It was striking though that the project moved/was changed after so long (I'm not sure how many years, but it was quite a few). I know they used to employ 10K people, but I have no idea how many or few they contract now. The old contractor was WorkForceLogic - the new one is Lionbridge. WFL still handles the "ad quality rater" jobs, which I believe are a review of the paid/non-organic results.

So that's how the source code of your sites looks like? Oh my God, I'm so behind...

Maybe some of you guys used this research knowledge for a very-personal-projects?
