"Here is a recap of what happened in the search forums today, through the eyes of the Search Engine Roundtable and other search forums on the web.Search Engine Roundtable Stories:\n\n\t\tGoogle Shares Information About its Human Search Evaluators\n\t\tAs we know, algorithms are very powerful in influencing the search results. However, we also know that Google has human evaluators -- thousands, in fact.

The relevant piece of information is here: Google makes use of evaluators in many countries and languages.

Probably a Fluke\n\t\tI cannot tell you how many times we see threads that are either reporting or questioning if there is a Google PageRank update. We try to document all \"real\" toolbar PageRank updates here, but often, very often, there are smaller updates or not updates at all, of the PageRank bar, reported in the forums. I figured I highlight one such thread, because Google's JohnMu adds some insight into why people might see a PageRank 0\n\t\tGoogle's New Dynamic Quality Score Now Live\n\t\tGoogle announced last night that the real time quality score algorithm would be live within days. Many are now reporting that they are seeing it live in their campaigns. I personally logged into a few of my accounts and noticed it was live for me also.
