we need a paradigm shift away from search, just as google engineered a shift away from portals in the late 90s. idk what form that would take but I suspect some kid in a garage is going to come up with something...

Or maybe we just need to make better websites, so there more good content for the search engines to find.

We expect everything to be online. But I suspect that for many queries, we get garbage results because that's all there is.

My experience is that good content often is out there, it's just that SEO is so unreasonably effective that search engines aren't finding it.
Rest assured when it leaves the garage Google will buy it up and kill it too.
