It's the #8 result on a Yahoo search, and it's well-known that each search engine has a unique algorithm, or else they would all return precisely the same results..

Yes! You too can be one of the 19 people on the internet who use Ask Jeeves!

Seriously, though, Google is vastly more popular than all other search engines combined because it is so good at what it does. The fact that people spend so much time and effort "Google bombing", as it's called, shows just how important Google is. The fact that a small number of people have successfully Google bombed a small number of phrases is irrelevant to the fact that Google brings me exactly the information I need it to 95% of the time.

Actually, Google is getting much harder to find what I want. I use other search engines much more frequently now.

And it is disgusting what some jerks will do. As in this result that came up in Google.

When will they pull it?
