The document discusses an interview with Google's Matt Cutts where he downplays the significance of social signals compared to links. Cutts notes that while social signals may gain importance over time, links still make up the vast majority (single digit percentage) of connections on the web. He states it is premature to conclude that links are obsolete given there is more web data being generated than any other source.
