You wanna stop moving the goalposts?



I will if you will. You said:

> Searching is useless if it doesn't provide results.

but nobody has suggested that Google doesn't provide any results.


would you say it's at least misleading to say that there are 10 billion results? If not, how far would it have to go before you would consider it misleading?


i would call it a tease. i don't (currently) have any particular reason to disbelieve the result count. but under some circumstances i'd be pissed that google would not show me more than 500.
