Having trouble with google finding Xmarks?

[MacMillans son]

Here are two nice little sites (with a track-less search engine) that discusses how google and other engines skew results based on individual search histories.

I haven't looked at the link yet artificer, but am confident that my issue wasn't related to search histories as I'm never (3-4 times a year) on Facebook and nearly always 3+ times a day on Xmarks.

However, it is easy to believe that Google would route people to those sites that they have a financial interest in, using some form of ranking that they felt best suited their goals.

No, I don't think that was your issue (and mine, when I tested it). I just thought the links might provide educational to those who are unaware of just what google is doing.
