These solutions don't answer any of the fundamental problems with Google:

- who pays for the service (ads? users pay? Average user will never use a paid service if a free one is available)

- how to resist attacks against the algorithm (Google has been fighting spam for decades)

- how to personalize without invading privacy, e.g. Google had an option to search through your email in Google search...it's gone now, I wonder why?
