NCSA Issues Disclaimer on Google/Yahoo Study

Posted by Hemos on from the point-counterpoint dept.

Jean Veronis writes "NCSA has issued a strong disclaimer on the study announced recently on Slashdot that seemed to contradicted the fact that Yahoo's index size would be bigger than Google's: ' Staff at the NCSA noted several issues with the study'. This study conducted by students is 'not an NCSA publication and was not conducted as part of any NCSA project or under the supervision of NCSA'. "

    They probably almost got their ass sued, hah, hah...

    They asked for it... Within days (ok, maybe weeks) of Yahoo's announcement they think up, prepare and conduct a "study". Riiight.

    Unfortunately that's not a CVS tree that one can do updates and send diffs as they please.
    And the bozos used the university site to publish such mambo-jumbo study. Very professional!
