A Strange Recommendation

Filed under Life

For some reason, I couldn’t stop laughing out loud after searching the Fry’s Electronics website for their hard drive selection.

    Sometimes those small search engines not combined with the Big One (G) gives very surprising results. I had few such adventures myself.

    It’s nothing more than a simple search engine asking you to submit a smaller string of words. No intellegence at all.

    WOW, that’s really very funny. Obviously there’s a flaw in how their SE script operates. I’ve had problems like that before on other sites, but none that bad.

    Type in a string that returns nothing and your get a request to trim down your search. The search engine doen’t use any intellegence to tailor the response. It can’t – to do so would mean the search engine would need to apply some syntax rules like to not suggest hard or drive in place of hard drive.

    All sites that incorporate a basic search engine suffer from the same flaw.

    It works fine with me. I tried two keywords “hard Drive” and harddrive” and it gaves me good search results. Well i guess search engine play with you. Or maybe search engine lost his mind temporarily. hahaha.
