Google is Brain Dead

Google Dance happened this week (They have updated their Index, along with updating the shitty page ranking). I donno why google wants to shoot itself on the foot. The already screwed up page ranking system, just got worse and the results are totally meaning less.

For example,

– Search for search engine and Google itself is ranked 5th.
– A week ago if you had searched for linux fundamental, the link to my site would have been the top link, which right now is not even there in the google index. how the heck can they remove a link completely from their index, when it had the highest page rank ?
– The results are so inconsistent. I can no longer say “Go to google and search for blah and click on the second link”

And you should also read PageRank is Dead

    Since page-rank also takes into account how many people click through a particular link from google’s result page … any other search engine would get a higher rank than google on that front.

    You are already on google.com … and searching… why would you want to go back to google ?

    This is the best part !

    I searched first for “linux fundamental” you didn’t figure anywhere.

    Then I searched “within results” for kalyan verma. You didnt figure any where there again. 😉 See here.

    Try searching for ‘Best Search Engine’ – lo & behold 🙂 !!

    Also, the results that nerd pointed to actually has the link to ‘did you mean ……. Varma, which comes up with your LJ.

    Sorry Vikrant

    Oops – didn’t mean to be rude – meant ‘that nerdy pointed to’, typo and intricacies of English meant it ended up as ‘that nerd’ pointed to!! Sorry, Vikrant :-} ……..
