I want to apologize. While it is true that I did laugh at first, I looked back and realized how vicious and prejudiced the post actually was, and realized that it is not all in good clean fun. After re-reading the post, I feel ashamed for laughing at it.
I was just talking to someone on IRC, and we were playing a game with Google. You had to find a two correctly spelled words which would obtain a page or less of results. He mentioned that a distributed client which searches for the longest string of words returning less than a page would be a cool idea.
How would they block this in things like Lynx or any older browser? And if worst came to worst, couldn't you just modify Mozilla to say that it displayed the ad, when it really did'nt?
Apache wont die. Maybe it will become less popular commercially, but it wont die. All the people who cant afford commercial hosting (like me!) will use it. Its always nice to have a free alternative.

And I liked the old way much better! They are easier to read.
Now, they are just like the standard boxes in the normal page.
Yeah, Im sure there is alot of backend stuff, since the UI seems the same.
I would be interested to know as well.
