Some people over at WMW are quite disappointed at click quality of Google DomainPark.
Most of what Google does is great in my eyes. The discouraging thing about paying good monies (always wanted to use that word) to people who are cybersquaters buying expired or misspelled domains is that you are promoting the creation of junk which wastes time. These people create ends to the web which is otherwise endless.
AdSense was created to help fund the creation of high quality content. DomainPark rewards people for not creating content.
Google will argue that these DomainPark pages help people find relevant information, but if you asked people knowledgeable about the internet what Ultimate Search does few would say "help people find relevant information."
Ultimate Search has a deal with Overture (Google's biggest rival) which pays him a percentage of the click through price from an add filled directory. He has bought thousands of domain names and the only difference between them is the title and url. They all stink!
Say you want some "True Democracy." What you find is commercial crap...the complete opposite of what the web is about.
Search engines do not execute java. They should not follow java links. I used java coding on the above link such that there will be no PageRank parsed to his evil site. If you ever want to link to evil stuff without parsing any PageRank or link popularity you can view the javascript I used by looking in the status bar when you roll over the above link. Place that string where you normally would place the domain in you href links.
Google please don't be evil :)
