I typed in Belinda Stronach (leadership hopeful for Canadian Conservative party) & Bill Clinton, looking for the picture of them together for a DU post. what do yah know, almost all the results were from paranoid whacko posts in FReeperville.

3. SE's havent perfected/invested in dynamic search indexing...
notice the question mark in theh URL of every thread..thats a variable that is determined by user input (kindof) Since SE's index automatically, you can imagine the scope of indexing utilizing each and every variable imaginable

Technology is there, but the resources arent. Dont take offense to it.

A Google search of my user name brings up many DU hits. There's even one Free Republic hit.
