:O.o: Google translator is 5th on the list, lmao. Maybe they think their translator sucks, or maybe they just forgot to cheat-ily( :wacko: ) put their translator on the top.

Not just that, they put Yahoo (their worst enemy xD) on the top, lol!

I wouldn't be so sure of that. Okay, Yahoo! is the first result indeed, but doing a search for Translator on my part yielded another result, one on top of it in the special yellow box.

Here's my proof, since you always need evidence to back up your claims.

Spoiler: Show

Don't worry, that's an ad. Technically anything can appear there. I'm just surprised that the search result was Yahoo's. Even though Google's translator isn't the best in existence, it's hard to make a good translator. I thought that Google's was at least better than the others and would turn up on top when I google for it. xD

I always use "translate" for the key term and that shows google translator on the top.

I speak them all. I don't need a translator.

But seriously, this just shows why Google owns: they don't give a **** if they don't win.

google doesn't 'put anything' on the list.
the spiders rank sites based on relevance and back-links.

yahoo has been around longer, hence why it has more back-links

Sorry to go off topic but Google failed for twice...

Slightly Off Topic (please forgive me): Show

Although the first calculator I wrote in VB said 9 million billion = infinity. :<_<:

But the translator is pretty fail... and funny. :haha:

Post by: Starrodkirby86 on February 01, 2009, 12:32:37 am

That's off-topic? Hardly. It proves the point that Google's calculator service failed by having an incorrect number in the end. Nice job...

Care to find anymore Google exploits anyone?

Basically the integer of 32-bits-only (max ~ 4.3 billions) calculation error.

Google is God. They will who lives and who dies.

For examle, GMail is the end of all consumer mail services, its so much better.
On the other hand, Google Docs wills that MS Office and iWork continue to dominate.
