Highly esteemed plums are commemorated here

@JoshJers That is my experience too. What was stunning about Google when it launched wasn't its speed but its ability to find the answer you needed. I stopped bookmarking sites in my browser as I was confident I could find websites if I needed them again.
The results now are so unhelpful I have gone back to bookmarking and avoid using Google.

One thing that I was trying to describe to the 15-year-old is that, when I was in college, google worked *so well* to find basically exactly what you were searching for that there was a site called "Let Me Google That For You" where you could snarkily send someone their question back and they'd see it animate the process of typing their question into google, then get the search results and bam, there's the answer to their question

I would *never* consider doing that now because almost never is the first hit the actual thing you want (and, honestly, it's getting rarer that it's top 10)

i have tooted this image before but it is just so funny that i have come around to respecting it. now i think every paper should include an egregious diagram
