Think before you Google
« on: October 22, 2010, 02:01:39 AM »
Google is just an advertising profit monster with a side business in search.
I'm saying this because the quality of search results diminishes every month. Luckily you can still find plenty on Amiga, but if it keeps declining in quality maybe you won't be able to.
Unfortunately the web is now run by mega-corps and you are now just a consumer with little or no voice.
I would consider splitting the web in two factions the commercial section and the non-profit section. Is this a good solution?

Done!

Commercial: http://www.google.com/#sclient=psy&hl=en&q=amiga+site:.com&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai=&pbx=1&fp=956ab502b015b9a1

Non-profit: http://www.google.com/#sclient=psy&hl=en&q=amiga+site:.org&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai=&pbx=1&fp=956ab502b015b9a1

This Google thing ain't so bad once you get the hang of it.

Selling bullshit to the proles is the remaining industry we have.
