The Searchers
Google is not quite ready to take over the world yet. Every month, this site receives a bunch of hits from people who used Google to search for interior stairs. I doubt many of the potential DIYers were planning to recreate a 600 year old friary in Co. Clare, which appears on the first page of search results. Mind you, they probably were not looking for Castle of Count Zinzendorf at Berthelsdorf, Saxony, which appears even higher in the results.
For some reason, most of my photos do not show in Google - it doesn't seem to read the "title" tag in the image html code. It's a pity that there aren't some guidelines on how to have images detected properly. Of course, if google did publish such info, it would probably be roundly abused by porn merchants and other hucksters.
