THE BLOGOSPHERE ERUPTS! – Googlebombing campaign for “Greatest Living American” (and “Giant Brass Balls”)

On Monday, this blog reported about the Alchemy of Search’s Googlebombing campaign to get Stephen Colbert listed #1 as Greatest Living American (with accompanying link to ColbertNation.com).

Now I still think I like Stephen’s original idea from the blog post best (“During the Q&A period before the show, Stephen said he would like to rank first on Google for Giant Brass Balls. “). But the blogosphere has decided to support the Greatest Living American theme for the Googlebomb.

For those of you playing at home, this is what Alchemist Media is proposing:

1) GIANT BRASS BALLS Googlebomb

Copy this text and place it somewhere in a post in your personal blog or web site:
<a href="http://www.colbertnation.com/cn/balls-for-kidz.php">Giant Brass Balls</a>

2) GREATEST LIVING AMERICAN Googlebomb

Copy this text and place it somewhere in a post in your personal blog or web site:
<a href="http://www.colbertnation.com/cn/letter-from-stephen.php">Greatest Living American</a>
