Google Answer to Filling Jobs Is an Algorithm. First, from a “what should I do,” view, I believe, Kevin Meyer’s advice is more appropriate: The False God of the Almighty Algorithm. But Google can do some things well that are unwise for others to try.

Google experimenting in this way, seems fine to me - though I think it will fail. Better: Google’s brain teasers - but that effort probably will not scale to meet Google’s needs.
