Eddie Martini's

Eddie's number one pet peeve with the internet...everyone is trying to sell me something and few are using the internet to pass along information devoid of a sales pitch. The search engines are burying the sites where I look for information. This craziness has got to stop. Equally as frustrating is the the absence of a search engine that clearly can identify a home site. You would think it would not be that hard to find a site but the people who park sites and fill them with links that take you anywhere but where you want to go are enough to raise your blood pressure.

The other problem with search engines like Google is they tend to favor popular pages rather than the page that has the thing you really want, which might not be such a popular page. In Google, if the page isn’t highly linked from other pages, it probably won’t score very highly and probably won’t end up on the first two pages.
