Taking back the most viewed feed from the google image searchers.

Now, Susan Sarandon, Tina Fey and the pitbull are all sexy in their way, but how did they turn up on a search for sexy men? Or have I misunderstood this completely?
Not completely. I went through the older posts that clog up the most read in the last four hour feed and determined these photos pop up in the top three pages of Google Image searches when you search for "pit bull" or "Cristiano Renaldo" and so on.
Clicking on the link from the google image search takes you to the open salon posts that contain the various images and thus they get hits that keep them in the most read feed even though no one is reading them.
Harry Homeless nullified the Pitbulls in Spamalot post by republishing the pit bull photo in that post in one of his blogs. It took a day or two, but spammy pitbulls has dropped off the feed.
If it works the same way by posting the last five blogs, we may see an end to the sexiest men post, the hollywood entourage, the America Zebra Nation, and other that are garnering their hits from google image searches.
Cross your fingers.

Damn. Didn't know that would be a problem. You've got me worried about posting pictures now. Is there a way to keep Google from finding the images (or at least not put them at the top of their search)?
Not sure how the google analytics work or why Harry Homeless was successful. I'm sure kay song, mungular and the rest had no intention to clog up the feed. If the editors would just reapply the time constraints that used to keep the feed fresh, none of it would matter.
Photos can break up a post and add tremendously to it. So don't shy away from using them. If my effort works to clear out the older posts, the Harry Homeless feed cleaning technique can always be used again if zombie posts show up in the feed due to google image search.

BBE. I've been trying this myself for the last couple of days, with no success beyond entertainment value . From my own scientific study, the images most popular from Kaysong's post are Daniel Craig, Hugh Jackman, and Sean Connery. Try those. Maybe you'll have more success than I. Good Luck!
That is an excellent effort on your part to dilute the power. Much more entertaining that my blunt work.
Right now I've got six posts up with the most popular google image photos from a wide assortment of older posts that zombie the feed. Sean, Huge and Daniel are in one of the others.
Now we wait - again.

DIGG and REDDIT this, people! How is it that you don't get paid for this public service?
Heh, I like Haggis' article being in the feed, it's a great article and very funny.
I like many of the posts, but they had their time on the cover and as EPs and more than enough time on the feed since the editors changed the system back in March. Fight the power!
I do what the shiny metal skull tells me to do.
