Twitter Comes Out Swinging Against Google's Personalized Search

Posted by Soulskill on from the social-networking-drama dept.

Meshach writes "Google's release of the new 'Search Plus Your World' feature has elicited harsh words from Twitter's general counsel (who used to work with Google). He claims that the changes will make information harder to find for users and be bad news for news publishers. Some analysts are wondering if this is a prelude to a legal battle similar to Microsoft's bundling of IE."

    [Personalized search just doesn't work!] Well, it worked for some time, but lately even when looking for some completely innocent words, like e.g. "frog" I tend to get only kinky results.

    I'd recommend pron browsing mode to bypass Google picking up your kinky preferences for your personalized search!
