Those who say, "Search Sucks", are bloggers who need you to read something they wrote. You're not likely to get one to show up here to tell you what's up. It's because they're just using that headline for what it is - bait that will top HN and drive traffic. They will make a few good points and let the readers have it out in the comments. The truth is that Google and lots of other search engines can search the web pretty well. I can't actually think of a good example where I couldn't find what I was looking for (and isn't that the point?). Maybe occasionally you'll fail to find something really specific, but I think it reasonable to assume that if Google can't find it, it probably isn't there. Or it just isn't good enough to be linked to from elsewhere. And sites like that probably aren't worth a solution.
