But, I guess everyone has to make a living. It’s a little strange to read that Google’s main interest is in advertising, as opposed to enhancing human knowledge.

I don't think that Google could really put a lot of stock in what the average Tom, Dick and Harry vote up and down though - or at least I hope they don't.

If Google turns into Reddit or some other site like that, all those people who obsess over making their opinions stick out on the internet will probably start warping search results.

I rather have Google stay as it is then get prettied up and lose some of it's functionality... As for the voting up and down thing, I think that lends itself to all kinds of evil complications with people buying votes and what not if it launches in a full fledged manner like Digg and the others...
