    Default Google Leaning Leftish? What other search engines do you use?

    Has anyone noticed that lately, if you google the news you're getting MORE AND MORE Left wing Bullshit right at the top?

    ie http://www.examiner.com/x-14327-Rich...oud-of-My-Vote

    http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/20...45969/-No-Fear

    WTF?

    Ok... so anyway, Obama is doing such a GREAT JOB because he UNDERSTANDS foreigners (Is that because he IS one?) and those DAMNED RIght WING Scaremongers are so full of shit... doncha know?

    Well I wonder if Google is getting managed or are they just secretly leaning toward the Left, they also own YouTube.

    There has been rumors of some political content recently getting restricted.

    google, but i don't search for political type stuff on it. mostly work related stuff (websites), which tends not to lean in either direction.

    As much as it pains me, I just get the best results from Google.

    I googled trans asian axis the other day from a cafe internet....duh- google never heard of it. I once used open directory and was even an editor, but I don't know how "up" right or left they are now.

    Well, I typically do use Google. But I've heard others saying good things about Microsoft's new search engine, Bing.com. Haven't tried it myself.

    Checking into Google... I find:

    [edit] PageRank

    Main article: PageRank
    Google's algorithm uses a patented system called PageRank to help rank web pages that match a given search string.[7] The PageRank algorithm computes a recursive score for web pages, based on the weighted sum of the PageRanks of the pages linking to them. The PageRank derives from human-generated links, and is thought to correlate well with human concepts of importance. The exact percentage of the total of web pages that Google indexes is not known, as it is very hard to actually calculate. Previous keyword-based methods of ranking search results, used by many search engines that were once more popular than Google, would rank pages by how often the search terms occurred in the page, or how strongly associated the search terms were within each resulting page. In addition to PageRank, Google also uses other secret criteria for determining the ranking of pages on result lists, reported to be a number over 200.[8]

    try www.dogpile.com

    Its a meta-search engine that a tech guy in Cali turned me onto years ago. Still, I found it to be too much and generally use Google as a start. As to left or right leans, I haven't seen much either way when i search based on events or people names.
