    Does anyone have any examples of searches that work better with Google's new algorithm?

        @paulg I don't know if to just me, but I saw that on Google, Zagat/Google+ pages come before Yelp pages for restaurant searches.

        @saraclay15 @paulg this is the reason that google searches now suck. SEO? They are just putting google products ahead of relevant choices...

        @andrewpheil @paulg Shouldn't we have all seen this coming? What if Apple also had its own search engine?

        @saraclay15 apple has never got web products right ... It would be a disaster.

        @andrewpheil Right. But if they did have search, the SEO would be so, so skewed

        @paulg seems worse to me but having a big boost on some of our travel sites; unfortunately we barely know the search keywords..
