Inspired by Scotts post about how to get a link on CNN and the BBC I decided to investigate the top high authority sites that give out free search engine spiderable links.
The first 8 sites are all allowing Google to index their web search results and News.com allows even the spammiest viagra comments.
These links may or may not have been devalued by Google.

Nice list
I have reproduced it, and added a few more sites here
http://www.tiscali.co.uk/robots.txt
http://www.orlandosentinel.com/robots.txt
http://www.exalead.fr/robots.txt
http://suche.web.de/robots.txt
Some of those must be recent additions. All the sites still have a number of spam pages indexed in Google.
This is great and all, but is there any actual value in it? They are search results pages, not actual links from the site.
i am glad to know this authority sites. I will try to check on this sites and see what i can do. Anyway, thank for this!
