Dear Google: Crappy Results Like This Don’t Give The Impression You Care About Search

Tyler, you're doing the search 24 hours later. It started changing for some people a few hours after I wrote the initial story. That's to be expected.

Dear Google: Crappy Results Like This Don’t Give The Impression You Care About Search

Paxton, that video doesn’t appear to have ever been embedded in Rick Santorum’s site. Given how much he hates that other search results for him showin

Dear Google: Crappy Results Like This Don’t Give The Impression You Care About Search

TimmyTime, I don't depend on search engines showing up. If they didn't show up, we'd do perfectly fine with all search marketer panels. Remember, I've

Dear Congress: It’s Not OK Not To Know How Search Engines Work, Either
