[dba-Tech] Google tweaks to stifle Bing

This from slashdot:

*"As Bing gets closer to capturing almost 33% of the market share in the
U.S., Google has again made a large tweak to its
algorithms<http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/11/03/google_fresh_search_algorithm_tweak/>
to
provide more up-to-the-minute search results. The change affects around 35%
of queries and is intended to give users more recent news and stories. For
breaking news stories the search engine will now weight more heavily the
most recent coverage, and not just those sites that are linked the most,
and for general terms the search engine values fresh content more than old.
Google is hoping that these recent new changes will provide better search
experience and stops users from switching over to Bing, which just recently
launched its own GroupOn like site."**
