I thought they were referring to www.blackle.com when they said Google is too white!!

The American Diabetes Association is an excellent source for all people looking for information about diabetes, regardless of race.

Oops, my bad. Thanks for pointing that out.

I read this before my morning coffee and I guess I didn't quite get the details correct.

Ok then - on with the new racist search engine...(it still seems like a joke, though).

Slow news day, eh?

Google duz not wanna rap JIBE eider

http://www.rinkworks.com/dialect/dialectp.cgi?dialect=jive&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com

Google results (SafeSearch is ON) for
"white is more important" about 28,900,000
"black is more important" about 24,600,000

flaming racists...


hey ted, google isn't changing it's some moron with an idea for a new search engine

If I do a Google search for "cracked out beaten up singers" it returns a reference to Whitney Houston first. Amy Winehouse is all the way down at 8th.

I find this idea a little bit racist, myself being white :P That's not to say that I pay much attention to it anyway.

This kind of things only helps to widen the colour divide, tbh.

does it return don king?

I think the human race just fell backwards into its own pool of creation.

(!)

This has to be a joke, right?

So now Google is going to bias the "true" relevance of the search results - as if Google wasn't biased enough.

Maybe, just maybe the Whitney Museum or the bank is a wee bit more popular than the warbling artist.

One question - did Google ever give more weight to the word "white" to begin with?

It looks like I'm on the hunt for a new search engine...

The next thing you are going to suggest is google start using Ebonics.

So rediculous..



here we go, veiled discrimination stuff, yawn, zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

aaaaaaaaaaaand engines weighted for, lesbian dancin groups, single yellow parents, 11 fingered poker players, single legged gay morris dancers, homophobic dwarves, curly tailed dogs, ad infinitum...............O_o

Well, Whitney Houston is the second result returned and it is a valid reason since in the west we place more importance on the surname.... but either way you need both the fore and surname to expect a result to come back the way you want it for a person. You don't type in Barak and get back only Obama.... nor if you search for Tony (Blair), Thom (Yorke), Mick (Hucknall).

Is it really normal of a person to expect to be the top search for what is globally a common noun?

Google is a general search engine. You can't compare them as they work on different mechanics. 

Also if your search was defined using the correct definitions (quotes around words, using OR and minus signs) you could probably easily acheive similar results.
