We have 50 reader reviews of GoDaddys website builder at Site Builder Report. Of the 50 reviews, 48 have received the lowest possible rating (1 star out of 5). http://www.sitebuilderreport.com/reviews/godaddy/user-review...

"In the future search will be a discovery tool" ... I think this sentence needs some work. It feels empty of meaning. Am I missing something? Or does the sentence really simply mean: "in the future search will be a way to discover things"?
Because in that case the future may already be here :)
