Britney Spears mispelling

[scangilli]

Everybody knows Google has and uses a spelling correction system. No big deal about it.

However the weird thing is that he has a stand alone web page (probably not even new) regarding Britney Spears mispelling. Have you ever noticed that? It's also placed in the jobs dir...

This is the link to the page: http://www.google.com/jobs/britney.html

Yeah that page has been there for years, its used as an example of how they apply machine learning techniques to learn relationships and associations within the data that they have

Its actually linked from this page http://www.google.com/support/jobs/bin/static.py?page=about.html&about=eng2

PS Britney is actually a girl not a "he"

ok thanks for the info...

however the he (maybe it was more appropriate) was referred to google not to britney... :)

I was lead to believe that google is also a she - knows where everything is :)
