One thing I realized this week--I've been wrong about using Google to search.
Background: I've been impatient with bureaucracies, particularly governmental, which design their own search facilities. I think I've said on this blog a time or two that people should just use Google.
Why am I wrong? Well, Google at the base is using links to prioritize its results. So, if we're talking about a collection of documents, say Federal Register documents or FSA handbooks, which don't have internal links, it would seem Google would do a lousy job of searching them.
Now I've made that admission, I'm done admitting errors for the year.
