 :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.

Blizzard

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.

What's osu!? It's a rhythm game. Thought I should have a signature with a working rank. ;P It's now clickable!
Still Aqua's biggest fan (Or am I?).

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.
Do you like ambient/electronic music? Then you should promote a talented artist! Help out here. (I'm serious. Just listen to his work at least!)

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): ShowHide

And there were more where that came from... just can't remember

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

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

Starrodkirby86

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?

I googled Google
QuoteResults 1 - 10 of about 2,620,000,000 for google. (0.05 seconds)


The results, only 10 pages :huh:

I remember last year, when everyone, including me, was like "ZOMG, Google's gonna win everything!"

And now...

Punn

That's like searching for Blizzard, you just get a clash of snow then Boris. >_>;
Don't ya think cuz Google is spelt longer then Yahoo?

Blizzard

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.
