Maybe they are getting ready for the Borg Collective also known as Microsoft invasion.

Personally I use Google for all my search engine needs and am also very happy with the traffic that I get from Google.

maybe for their next milestone they can build a functional algorithm.

<addendum>

after studying the current algorithm it's pretty clear that at least on the adult serps certain types of "authority" sites are favored over others.

this is good for the site owners that are lucky enough to have relevant sites, but it also leads to non-adult sites such as blogs being listed as "authorities" because of adult spam in the comments.

when you have an algorithm that ignores the title, the headings, the alt tags and the body text of a page you pretty much have a shit algorithm.
