| Jul 16, 2020 at 10:38 | comment | added | Chayim Refael Friedman | @Pacerier But then we won't find real answers... In general, as SE get more and more irrelevant answers (off-topic and similar), it's harder to find an answer to your question. Maybe it's unavoidable, and the only fix is to open a new Q&A site... | |

| Feb 16, 2016 at 9:37 | comment | added | Pacerier | @Timwi, Exactly. The reason such a problem even exist is because Google has assigned a high "value" to SE pages. If more than x% of SE is filled with lmgtfy, Google would soon self-adjust (by lowering SE's search ranking) and the problem would be solved. | |

added link to the newly minted second Google question FAQ, and fixed spelling
|
| Sep 2, 2010 at 22:28 | history | edited | Arjan | CC BY-SA 2.5 |
Added "Return to FAQ index" as this is actually tagged [faq] (and is even listed on the Meta homepage); cleaned up a bit
|

Reverted title to its original (I think that describes the question much better, but it's also the title as used on the Meta home page)

| Aug 2, 2010 at 11:41 | comment | added | Timwi | Imagine you google for a question, and the first search result that comes up is a StackOverflow post for exactly the question you need. So you click on it, read the answer... and what does it say? “Just google for it!” | |
