nobrandsearch of Hakia is flawed

Posted in Google, Other Engines | Monday, January 18th, 2010 | 2 Comments » Trackback

NoBrandSearch is a new project of Hakia. It’s intended to be an one more blind comparison of search engines. Unfortunately, it has a flaw in non-Latin characters display for Google results (and, in particular, that fact has led me to vote for Bing’s results which displays Cyrillic correctly):

That is not a Google problem, it displays Cyrillic correctly:

Thus Hakia should fix the display problem for Cyrillic in Google results and restart the comparison to get correct results.

    Also, broken Cyrillic discloses Google’s results before voting, that spoils the comparison as well.
