Google and Blogs

Dave Winer:

Somehow, in a perfect world, Orlowski reasoned, Google would remember not only that the Times had used the term first, but that somehow the Times is more important than weblogs. Pfui. The Times can’t possibly be a factor in Google searches for the simple reason that the Times archive is not accessible to Google. It’s behind a for-pay firewall.
