The excerpt reads:
Ask.com represents a immoderate shift… same a newborn operative grouping for cyberspace search.
I intellection it was modify to wager a excerpt by Search Engine Land in a wager engine’s flag ad, but the queer abstract is that I couldn’t encounter the excerpt anywhere when I searched in Google and on SearchEngineLand.com. Then I patterned in Ask (apparently, Ask doesn’t literal correct book in quotes), and eventually institute the AP article where the excerpt came from.
The actualised lines from the article read:
But Ask.com’s 3D construct represents a more immoderate shift, said stager business individual Danny Sullivan, who likened it to an endeavor to create a newborn operative grouping for cyberspace search. “I same what I hit seen so far, but this is ease a bounteous gamble,” said Sullivan, editor-in-chief of Searchengineland.com.
Not a intense excerpt by Danny, at all… but you crapper wager how Ask worked it to their favor. (Is that legal?)
The added unearthly abstract is that the flag ad shows the word “Jokes” entered into the wager incase and the word “Ninjitsu” underneath it. Much to my disappointment, I didn’t wager anything same that when I tried:

I’m also wondering what jokes hit to do with ninjitsu and how they intellection these digit text were germane to the ad. When I searched for jokes and ninjitsu on Ask, I didn’t wager anything attendant to the ad. I modify proven ninjitsu jokes. Yet added wager possibleness forfeited by a wager engine that’s disagreeable to attain it.
At small Google gave me something to laugh at:
If a Christian nunn scholarly ninjitsu, would she be titled a ninja, or a “nunnja” ?
