@John @briankrebs Google is well positioned to punish site swappers, but they don't.

I still believe they started the avanlache to breaking search by first getting everyone on Google Reader and then taking it away.

When blogs died, unrelated human maintained sites stopped providing high-quality links to each other, eventually losing the key sense-making mechanism of the web.

(Granted, prople moving to FB is part of the same problem, but Google has also been active in making it worse.)
