Cloaking Detection?

Posted by Cliff on Thursday April 18, 2002 @03:33PM from the use-your-cloaking-device-hahaha!-I-didn't-think-so dept.

drcrja asks: "I am conducting some academic research on the use of cloaking and how it affects search engine rankings (cloaking is the practice of delivering a specially optimized page to search engine spiders while delivering a completely different page to the user). I am currently using Alta Vista's Babel Fish to retrieve pages and compare those pages to the pages on the actual web sites but I am trying to find other methods of detecting cloaking. I am wondering if any members of the /. community have any experience with this?"

Marv Albert is not dead you asshole (That wasn't even funny). But I was looking for that story anyways and found that he was in a serious car accident yesterday. Read here.

Oh and by the way Marv Albert is 60 years old.

Sorry I know off-topic but I had to clear things up.
