I use google news only partially to get my daily dose of the news. If you see my web history, I rarely click on a news item and if I do its usually general news.
Yet google grossly underestimates my intelligence by recommending either bollywood or other sleazy news.
and...
My search history is also very clean. I wont post a snapshot of that ,you'll have to take my word for it. Whatever profiling they do is obviously not working.
I am not one bit happy about this :X

Would love a peek at the search history, thanks very much (although without any deletions, please to take care) :P
Haha, the only reason I didn't post it is coz it would have needed editing. :P
hmm if u really insist i will take your word for it ;)
and say maybe google wants you to read such silly news at times too n relax. after all too much of intelligence can be bad :P
Drat! I have GOT TO learn how to hack accounts :P
I believe attempting to make the net a newsmedia would be much like attempting to make television into radio...it simply isn't goin to happen ;)
The best analogy I can give in terms of ur post is disruptive technologies ( online news media & print news media ) what we are witnessing is something akin to an arranged marriage where neither party is quite sure how things are supposed to look when they get together.. Interesting times ;)
rd, yes I suppose...and sometimes I am tempted to read the unintelligent gossip that it recommends for me :D
rd, :D
lokesh, haha the analogy was good..interesting times indeed!
