Poker Sites under Blogger Attack

In the last two weeks there has been a campaign amongst bloggers to googlebomb for the Online Poker Wiki page. As we have known for a long time if you have thousands of bloggers linking to a site, it will gain a top ranking. This stunt is turning into a problem for blogs, wikis and Google.

They've managed to get the Wikipedia entry for online poker up to #3 on a Google search for online poker. Not sure what the purpose is. (By my linking to the Wikipedia entry, this blog is becoming part of the Googlebomb.)

Slashdot discussion here.
