Google does seem to be getting clogged up with crap results, but I can reliably find what I'm looking for within a few searches. Unfortunately, that's more than I can say for most of the alternative search engines right now. I had major frustration yesterday trying to find Ruby/Rails topics after switching to Blekko as my default search engine (even with the slashtags and everything). I gotta say that the /seo slashtag is awesome though.

Did you try out /ruby ?

  I think so, I know I tried /rails though. I was looking for some ActiveSupport methods.

    During our beta we have only a limited crawl/index, 3 billion pages. Very specific technical queries and queries with a lot of words seem to suffer most. Would you like to be an editor for the /ruby and /rails slashtags?
    - jarin 16y ago
      Totally! I applied for /rails last night, I'll apply for /ruby too :)
      - greglindahl 16y ago
        You're approved for both. And if you think they should be a single slashtag give a shout, I'm not that familiar with the Ruby community.
