Google Earth makes a surprise attack... Dr. Evil Lives!
"The recently released desktop app Google Earth 5 contained a little surprise for many Mac OS X users — it installed Google's automated Update Engine without clearly asking.
Worse, the latest version of Google Earth won't work without the Update Engine running in the background.
We mentioned the new update policy in our initial review, but given Google's lack of transparency, or what users perceive as a lack of transparency about the update, it bears a closer look.
Sneaking an auto-updater into a software package without clearly pointing it out during the installation process is a bad idea, one that Google has promised to change with a new, more informative splash screen. But, offering no way to turn the update software off is downright evil, according to many upset users in the Google Earth Group."

Good thoughts on ratings algorithms (thanks for the link Brent)
"PROBLEM: You are a web programmer. You have users. Your users rate stuff on your site. You want to put the highest-rated stuff at the top and lowest-rated at the bottom. You need some sort of "score" to sort by."
