What happened with the leaked Google manual?

They outsource to this company. And the document everyone is discussing here is issued by the same company to its employees (Called "internet assessors"), not by GOOGLE!

I have a friend who works for Lionbridge and he showed me this document back in May 2011.

I have to agree, the doc is for tier 1 not for experienced seo. It almost reads like a beta manual.....

I was lucky enough to download it, and save it to my HD.

The Guidelines may be ridiculous for those of us experienced enough, BUT if this is the way that G is rating sites, then take it on board.

i.e. If company 'a' says that today, all boxes leaving its factory will be 'red', no amount of arguing that this will cause problems for red-green colorblind people will change the situation,. The boxes are going out RED.

So if G is rating sites thus, it matters not that we think they are stupid. Thats the way its being done

..... and that was the value of the information ...

Is the doc still availble? Can somebody send me a new link.

Thanks,
