Search just about any health related query, the vast majority are pure snake-oil salesmen. Product reviews basically either point to CNet or some relatively trusted source, or if they don't, they point to complete garbage. Try looking for any public records, most bring you to "people search" websites that trick users into thinking they do more than they do. Searching for anything historical brings up wikipedia, and if your lucky, some google books results, which is good, except that Google stopped scanning books. I could go on. It seems like Google is fine at picking the major trusted sources that everyone knows about, but is really bad at differentiating smaller quality sources from spammers. I mostly use Google as my Wikipedia/StackOverflow search machine. I usually find better material searching the references of a wikipedia article. |

That's really a shame (and an opportunity for someone else).
