Google adds 1 billion pages to search - 2/18/2004 22:18:34   
quote:

Google unveiled an even more powerful version of its leading search engine with the addition of 1 billion additional pages to its Web index, increasing its breadth by about one-third. Google's engine, the most popular on the Web, now spans 4.28 billion Web pages, up from 3.3 billion pages earlier this week.

By rolling out its expanded search engine early Tuesday, Google stole some thunder from Yahoo, which announced Wednesday that it's ready to run its search engine without Google's help.

Sunnyvale-based Yahoo has been licensing results from Google's search engine since June 2000, helping to establish Google as the king of online search.

But Yahoo has long viewed Google, based in Mountain View, California, as a competitive threat and last year spent more than $2 billion on acquisitions to acquire more of the technology that it needed to run on its own search engine. Yahoo last month disclosed it would sever ties with Google before April, so Wednesday's announcement isn't a surprise.

Get in line both of you :) The preceding 999,999,996 are all blog entries. When (as I've been finding increasinly to be the case) you have to start at result 40 to get past blog noise its time to switch from google. And I have. I'll go back when they filter the bloggys the way they do with usenet.
