Looking Back At Search & 9/11
Five years ago, like so many, I was shocked and horrified by the events of

It underscored what I’ve long described as the great failure of Google then,
having to effectively tell people to go elsewhere for information while its web
search results were showing links with descriptions saying things like “View

better resource, with improved integration into Google results, has helped.

excellent recap from 2001 that those thinking of past history will want to see.
