We talk about the bad search results on Google and while this may be temporarily true what are we comparing against - the competition?

I just did my monthly review on our principal keywords in AltaVista and AllTheWeb. These serps are full of spam, duplicate sites and just plain poor results. They obviously have very poor algos to weed out the junk.

With Google we at least have a constantly updated search engine with many of the worst cases of Spam eliminated. Sure things right now are not perfect for everyone - they never will be. But in the end, when all of this straightens itself out, Google will still be the #1 search engine with the best results - IMHO.
