Too bad we don't vote with our searches.

In some sense, you do, particularly if you're using the Google Toolbar. Part of how Google wants to beat link farms and such is to collect lots of data on both what you're searching for and what you ultimately decided was the proper result of your search. In aggregate, that is clearly useful for the quality of the results. The question is how, exactly, they do this and how, exactly, you can train an army of web surfing robots to defeat it...
