Google's searches are becoming second rate

Linkster, you and me both when it comes to MSN. The MSN search is amazingly good, the results are bang on relevant (a little too relvant, but there you go), and their bot is agressive about visiting all corners of the site.

The new google infrastructure I guess is nice, but in reality the SERPs are still spam infested wastelands of poor results. Any generic or simple term is a waste, and it isn't getting better.

Worse news for Google is that the media is staying pretty heavy on the click fraud story, and making them look bad. When they put together that google has given priority to sites with adwords on the pages, well...

It doesn't smell quite as nice at googleplex right now.
