Very cool stuff but I have to disagree with the general idea.

I've been doing SEO for 8 years and I have to say that I came for the fun and money but I stayed for the challenge and algo changes.

I remember how, 8 years ago, it was all about "5% density" and link stuffing. Today is content quality, social signals, link profile (not just quantity), contextual co-relations and so much much more...

I think that I only truly fallen in love with SEO when Google started using rel=canonical. This is when it really became a game of poker and not a "hungy hungy hippos" with links in it.
