Nice idea! Redot from greg.
Quoted: What I particularly like about this paper is that they take a very hard problem and find a beautifully simple solution. Rather than taking on the brutal task of tearing apart the page layout to discard ads, navigation, and other goo, they just noted that the most important part of the page tends to be natural language text. By starting all their signatures at stopwords, they naturally focus the algorithm on the important parts of the page. Very cool.
