Rankmaniac 2012 – Reloaded

Have you ever noticed that you don't need to sift through pages and pages of google (or bing) results to find exactly what you were looking for? Ever wonder how google knows exactly what you're looking for?  It turns out there's a lot of math and graphs and a special analysis called PageRank (which did not get its name because it ranks pages, but is apparently named after Larry Page).

So, the purpose of this course project is to manipulate our way to the top of this system.  The higher we rank on Google and Bing image searches, the better the grade we get.  The most obvious way to do this is just have heavy traffic come through this blog!  So tell your friends to visit us and click on the Super Bowl picture when you image search "rankmaniac 2012".
