Men Playing Or Mine Is Longer

You use Google, Yahoo, Live.com or whatever search engine every day. The most important thing a search engine hast to do is give you the right result(s) for your query. So, what you really care about is the relevance of the results. You don’t care how long it took the search engine to come up with the results.
So why do almost all search engines still show the time it took to come up with your results? Because they were developed by men.

Google
search-results-google-search

Yahoo!
search-results-yahoo-search-results

Live (no time)
search-results-live-search

Baidu
e799bee5baa6e6909ce7b4a2_search-results

Altavista (no time)
altavista-search_-search-results

Cuil (no time)
search-results-cuil

Oh, and have you seen, that Altavista has the most results followed by Yahoo? Another method to compare sizes ;-)
