Could you indulge me by helping me with a little experiment? Could you google Adam Werritty, and then list in comments what google gives you on the “People who searched for Adam Werritty also searched for” line.

There’s a wisdom of crowds thing affecting google here. The official government line still is that there is absolutely no connection between Adam Werritty and Matthew Gould – yet he pops up every time (except for griffin).

I am feeling very good about this – a huge number must have searched for themselves to find the connection between Werritty and Gould, for the results to come out like this.

It is claimed that Google tailor your search results according to your your previous choices from your search history, and also possibly the history of pages you have visited which include content from Google. If you rarely delete cookies etc and don’t often turn off your router, Google (among others) may have a continuous record of much of your web activity for months or years, and offer you search results designed to interest you based upon your previous choices. If you have access to multiple accounts, you could try logging in as someone else to see if that gives different results.
The results posted in comments might change over a 24 hour cycle, because Google probably displays different results in different countries.
