Looks like google does not have relevant backlinks I see 141,000 links but don't see ANY relevant http://www.google.com/#hl=en&lr=&safe=on&q=link:www.google.com I think... they should be banned.
LOL I too think they should be BLACK LISTED ! ole spammy ass links LOL AHAHAHAHA but that does raise good suspision... how far behind are their DB's and what takes them so long to log backlinks ???
Check this: http://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/search?p=http://www.google.com&y=Explore+URL&fr=sfp and you will immediately understand why Google.com has PR10
I can't contribute much to the thread, but just wanted to say it was very clever and gave me a chuckle
Beside the backlink quantity, the backlink quality is also important. And, after all, it is google self's site. Man, wake up!
Nice one there. But yet the figure given by you about googles back links is way less than the original. It cannot just have 141,000 backlinks. It has to be in millions. But anyways, nice that someone showed the dark side of google.
