Has anyone noticed that since Google changed their algorithms, the results have made it USELESS? From best to worst in one fell swoop...........

I use it. Seems OK to me. They all suck if you ask me.

what I wish is you could prioritize the results in order of the number of times the search term is used in a page. If you get a 1000 results, I can't seem to find any pattern to the ordering, so I just guess how further restrict the search to make the list manageable enough view.
Like if I put in "Vaginal Probe" I'll get thousands of results but if it ws mentioned 25 times on a page, I'll probably get what I'm looking for.

Must be what happens when you go public on the stock market.

Its different depending on what your looking for.. If you want to shop.. Then use Yahoo or MSN.. look at the sponsored links.. they are monitored by editor making sure that they are relevant to your search.. If you are just looking for information.. the Yahoo algo search is pretty bad ass.. its all new..
If you cant tell.. I work for Googles compition:D

Google works just fine for me...I'm using it everyday for many searches. It's all about how you use it. The results are prioritized in a highly secret manner. :D

Google works fine for me and when I want to shop, I use Pricegrabber (http://www.pricegrabber.com/index.php/ut=43a68cfe67e927b8) or Pricewatch (http://www.pricewatch.com) .

Google has gone to shit in my opinion. Tons of spam pages ranking high now. The first several pages on several search terms are totally useless.:confused:
