Robert Scoble wonders if Google is trying to recruit one of their researchers

In this post Robert Scoble wonders if Google is trying to recruit one of Microsoft's researchers because there are Google Adwords on her name. Maybe, but what I think is more likely is that she's well published in her field and they are ads targeted at other researchers who are likely to be doing searches for her work. I noticed this a long time ago because there's a well known computer science researcher with my name at IBM and for a long time I've noticed that Google has adwords running on his name.

Hmmm, actually, now that I think about it, maybe their ads on "Rakesh Agrawal" are because of that great elevator algorithm I wrote in my operating system class in college that won me fame and adulation around the country! :)
