Web sites that try to sell you a related product but miss the point in a very unintelligent way; e.g A__zon Have a Mark Knopfler album called Private Investigations and then go on to say that you may also be interested in......

And then give links to 3 private investigators

Ah, the old keyword link scenario. :)

The same happens with the google adwords, but that doesn't bother me too much, what bothers me more is doing a google search and the first 5 items being price comparison type websites, telling me I can "Find parasites on Amazon.co.uk" :D

For Google ... " " = specifics = more accurate. After all, there's no logic in blaming a machine just for doing what it's programmed to do ... search for keywords :D

Have a play with brainboost.com for a search engine that works differently.
