I'm not the one who coined 'do no evil' or 'make some money without doing evil', "evil" is in the eye of the beholder. What is "evil" to me might not be to you. ;-) > Of course we could point at Microsoft. Is Google the > next Microsoft or is it worse? They might turn out to be the web search and advertisement Monopoly in the web industry, that might be why Microsoft is scared of Google and Google is scared of Facebook. > Heaven forbid, Google could be even slightly better. > > What do you, gamaral, offer as an alternative? > > Criticism is easy; providing a way forward difficult. Google is indeed a great search engine for the masses -- never said it wasn't but I find there search concept flawed, just because allot of people link to something doesn't make that the best answer, it just makes it the most popular one. > How do you propose we move forward? I am eager to > hear a viable alternative. How about trying a meaning search engine like "hakia" or "mahalo", make the big bad Google sweat a little. You could always "Ask Jeeves" :-P but he seems to be a little retarded.
