Google is very good at this, but this is exactly what I _don't_ want in the "Next Google". I want a _search engine_ for the web, not an answers engine that tries to know what I want better than I do.
Search the web. Give me links to websites. This seems obvious to me, but everyone is trying to be like Google.
I'm convinced the death of the web and independent forum communities is largely the fault of Google's lousy search results no longer actually returning real web results.
