Google's hiring Smalltalk programmers and they run ads on my keywords 8-)  
Try it yourself:

- http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en&q=smalltalk&gl=US

After half a dozen or so of manual refreshs, you will see their Smalltalk  
ad:

  Smalltalk at Google?
  Dig SmallTalk & object oriented
  design? Get a Java XP job at Google
  www.google.com/jobs/

I run my squeak.org campaign now for 36 hours, during which their CPC bid  
was raised from pennies to bucks, between a factor of 50 and 100. My  
pockets are not deep enough to compete against Google's own ads, sorry ;-)

Nevertheless, running this campaign was quite an experience :)
