I often google for IT related information. What I do not understand is why google sorts with the old IT articles at the top and the most recent articles are 3 or 4 pages into the scroll.
Maybe it is because the old articles having been around a while have a large number of hits and are thus considered more popular while the information that just came out 24 hours ago has not yet collected a big number of hits. And, of course, because google sorts the old to the top, and in the short synopsis google does not display the date so one has to open it to discover how old it is, for these reasons the old gets more hits.
In other words, google does a lot of stupid things.
But I have found Bing to be even worse in the few times I have gone to it. I don’t go there often because of my bad experience the few times I have gone there.
I have a similar experience but this is what I do to get the more recent articles:
In Google, in the ribbon at the top, go to Tools. When you do so, a pull down menu named Any time appears. Change this to filter the search to more recent times, such as Past hour, 24 hours, Week, month, or even year. You can also put in a custom date range.
