It's Not Just You, Google Search Actually Sucks Now

In this absolute 🔥🔥🔥 article, Edward Zitron goes deep on WHY Google's search product is so bad lately.

Long story short: a guy that doesn't care about making search good is in charge of search, and now search's biggest job FOR Google is to sell more ads.

Probably not the ONLY reason, but is definitely a contributing factor when you look at all the media coverage about Google sucking lately...
