Silicon Valley startup Google.com says its search engine is based on a
patent-pending technology that "performs an objective measurement of
the importance of Web pages and is calculated by solving an equation
of 500 million variables and more than 2 billion terms." How, then, to
explain this: A reader's search for the phrase "more evil than Satan
himself" returned Microsoft's home page as the first result.
