It is almost like they are admitting their search engine is bad and no one is using it. That is crazy. It is almost like they are admitting their search engine is bad and no one is using it.

However, in this example Google sidewiki IS a free service. It is not that I am struggling with the concept, just with the term "doing a google". If that were the case I would agree with you more.
