    It sucks. It's either google, having to comb through huffpos and salon crap with any google or deal with bing and microsoft.

    I don't suppose any of you bothered to try it out on google yourselves.

    (hint: it's actually the first and fifth suggestions long before you get to the "g")

    Yes, pixel, it does give you "climate gate", but it used to suggest climategate (one word). Just like if you type "waterg" it gives you watergate (one word). Also, if you type in the whole word, it gives 30,400,000 results. If you type it in with the space, you get 11,100,000 results (a third of the original).

    No outrage, just wierdness, because it WAS suggesting the single word version on the typing of "clim" just a few days ago.

    Does anyone actually use the phrase "water gate" to refer to the Watergate scandal?

    No it's not.

    I couldn't get that until I already went to "climate gate," then it remembered it.

    If you want an intuative search engine, Bing is way better:



    I personally prefer Altavista, because they don't place preferences like Google or Microsoft does. Nor the constant advertisers and added cookies. They however don't have intuitive selections either.

    This is more ridiculous than the 9/11 truthing. Google gives inane suggestions for thousands of things. There's a whole website with lists of them. That's what happens when you automate it with some algorithm.

    Actually, it refers to the name of the hotel in which the GOP burglars broke into the Democratic headquarters, and since the hotel name is one word...

    My guess would be that it's based on actual Google searches, and that most internetters aren't old enough to remember Watergate, so they type in Climate Gate as two words. I think all of you butt hurt righties should have tea parties to just type Climategate into Google until you get that fixed!!

    Interesting.


    Today it works again. I type in "cl" and Google suggests the one word version again and returns over 30 million results.

    Heard about this, thought it possibly couldn't be true.

    I tried it just now...

    Anything from

    climat
    climate
    climateg
    climatega
    climategat
    climategate

    climate g
    climate ga
    climate gat

    Doesn't return climate gate or climategate as a suggestion.

    Pathetic.

    No, I got it. There's just nothing but conjecture and conspiracy theories.

    lol at your stalking me, though. You are so into me.

    Lol, this place is not your house, but a public forum. There's no need to stalk a guy that avgs 1000 posts a day and has no life. It be pretty hard to avoid you.

    Yeah! There it is. You can't help yourself, I understand. You want to make it all about me because you fancy me. Thanks but I'm taken. Keep replying to me though. It definitely makes you look like you want nothing to do with me.

    . Hey, if you're so disgusted and scared of a "stalker" you could leave to another board or another place on the internet. I promise you, nobody would follow you.

    Try it. Prove me wrong.

    and as much as anyone will miss you. Try not to come back.

    Fantastic!

    Still posting about me!

    I am neither disgusted nor scared. Amused at the schoolgirl crush you have on me is more like it.

    I see that you are so afraid of your feelings for me that you want me to leave the board to spare you the torture of seeing my posts so often, knowing you can't have me.

    If you really are not into me, then it should be easy to stop posting about me to the exclusion of the thread topic.

    Try it. Prove me wrong.

    I know you won't be able to do it. The next post or so should show that much.

    If you're really not into being stalked you should leave spurstalk forever.


    It's for the best of us.
