Google rant

[Kal-El]

Google, the once all powerful search engine, is getting on my nerves.

You type in the name of a celebrity you want to find pictures of and do an image search. What do you get as a result? Sure you get SOME pictures of that celebrity, but you also get pictures of random people, porn, and pictures of other celebrities. If I wanted to see pictures of those people I would have typed their names in the search box!

To make matters even worse is that if you are lucky enough to find the picture you were looking for when you click on it you have about an 85% chance of getting a "forbidden," Page cannot be found," or a "hotlink error" message. Google, why do you show me pictures that aren't there, or I am forbidden from acessing?

It's something about google (and a lot of search engines) that's been bugging me for a long time.

i wonder if you type in "naked (insert name here) you would get then clothed. SO you know, the complete opposite. I would try it but i'l let one of you sickminded curious people do it for me.

I was using Celebs as an example. It happens no matter what you search and it's really really annoying.

It annoys me when its something so generic, like apple or something (apple doesn't come up with any, but you know what I mean). On the other hand, if it was banana or cucumber or something, I suppose I'd be asking for it.
