Man, those were the days. Nothing like the limited, slow, crippled, narrowly defined, crapppy search/recommendation engines of today!

Yea, whatever. Pointing that one company's implementation is flawed isn't the same as rejected all new technology. But then again, I'm sure you knew that and just didn't want to actually address the issue.
