and panda really gave tons of traffic to authority sites, but they are not authority sites me or you could ever make in this lifetime ... their new measure for authority is a CORPORATE site, like cnn, or bbc, or amazon. it's like they now factor in the net worth of an organization into the algo. and that's not really a joke.
Agreed, you are 100% correct. Now, fair enough some people are lucky to be getting a boost from the Panda and good luck to them, but their thinking is very short, they are only thinking about today, they do not seem to understand what happened with Panda, its got NOTHING to do with quality content, its exactly as you say, its about turning the web into a monopoly for big corporations, and if people dont wake up to what just happened they wont be in business in a few years from now.

Interesting article here shows how Panda is favouring scrappers over original content....
