Man, I completely agree. Both Google and Bing are completely and utterly broken. Both return about.com and ask.yahoo.com and a number of other sites that have been specifically built to game the system. Does anyone else remember when you could search Google and it would return academic institutions and actual interesting blog posts from individuals? It has been a long time.
When your system can be gamed, it is broken. Period.
