Looks like search engines have a long way to go before they can truly mine relevant bits of information.

An Associated Press writer had a go at the leading search engines — Yahoo, Google, MSN — against the more focused ones like Answers.com from GuruNet, Ask.com.

Wonder why Vivisimo was not included, its clustering technology is the cat’s pajamas. In my own makeshift test, testing all the questions mentioned in the above review, Vivisimo and Clusty threw excellent answers for pretty much every question. Good reason why I’m now an addicted convert.
