[LUG] re: Alternative to Google

 

One of googles problems (from a users point of view)
is commercialisation. If you can buy higher ratings
then the system is open to abuse - and therefore
fails. Try searching for something invented and you'll
find sites listed that want to sell it to you!
TOO MUCH NOISE!
The only way round it I can see is if searching
becomes part of the internet.
One way I can see it happening is if we can set up
'public' search engines - it will need a small
'internet tax' (~£1 per user per year?) to pay for a
search engine service that is managed by the users for
the users. That way you stick your meta tags in and
ask to be indexed. 
DCLUG could probably provide a small search on this
format for members?
