How big will the web get?

**Prince** · 11-12-2004, 02:35 PM

Google's index nearly doubles to more than 8 billion pages

ALBOB · 11-12-2004, 02:38 PM

That's an interesting number. How many people are on the entire planet. Are we going to have more web pages than people? Damn, maybe the machines really are taking over.

P.S. Just for clarification, is that web PAGES or SITES?

If it were whole sites I'd about shit.

Vieope · 11-12-2004, 02:41 PM

7 billion of them are porn.

Google is awesome. I've been using the a9.com search engine (owned my Amazon.com) recently and it's catching up quickly with Google.

I'll assume you use that one because it's better than Google. What do you find makes it better? I've had problems with trying to get Google to be as specific as I want. Is a9.com better at specificity? Thanks.

Vieope · 11-12-2004, 02:58 PM

What do you wanna find Albob? The right size of adult diapers?

redspy · 11-12-2004, 03:00 PM

I wouldn't say it's better across the board, I've just found it useful when Google hasn't served up good search results on certain topics.

Well, I have not even used it yet and I see two problems. 1) it greeted me by name. I guess from a previous amazon.com purchase and 2) it shows a history of searches.

When I search for perverted stuff, I don't want some to see it simply by going to www.a9.com!

You and the blue rabbit searching for pictures of old fat men wearing diapers again?

Hey Vieope...............

redspy · 11-12-2004, 03:04 PM

I'm not trying to imply anything here Pepper but when you use "Pepper" as a keyword on A9.com if comes up with this on the front page:-

Vieope · 11-12-2004, 03:05 PM

I like microsoft. It is not that bad as people say. Although it could use some improvements from the unix based systems.

Pepper · 11-12-2004, 03:05 PM

I was searching for Dirty Sanchez techniques and photos.

I love the note above her picture, "Showing picture 1 of about 1." Gee, think you could narrow it down a bit?
