I hate search engines

August 17th, 2008

One of the more, most?, irritating aspects of today’s search engines is that for all of their bullshit about "content neutrality", they obviously prefer to redirect you to their sites.

So look for an image on Yahoo and you get a whole bunch of flickr pages.

Look for the same image on Google, and flickr doesn’t even exist.

Don’t believe me? Look at a search in yahoo images for Tony

And what happens when I look for Tony on Google images?

No flickr!

A pox on both of their houses!
