Google's "neighboring web pages" explained?
Okay I'd like some feedback on the description from the last sentence from googles explanation of pagerank (from their site).

Hypertext-Matching Analysis: Google's search engine also analyzes page content. However, instead of simply scanning for page-based text (which can be manipulated by site publishers through meta-tags), Google's technology analyzes the full content of a page and factors in fonts, subdivisions and the precise location of each word. Google also analyzes the content of neighboring web pages to ensure the results returned are the most relevant to a user's query.

They analyze content from 'neighboring' webpages. Does anyone know the actual meaning of what google calls a neighboring webpage?
Pages on the same site which are linked from/to the current page? Or pages outside the domain link from/to this page at hand?
Any knowledge on this would be appreciated.
