That's strange, I get links from amazingribs.com and food.com, which is more or less what I expect

http://www.amazingribs.com/recipes/porknography/best_BBQ_rib...

Either way, it's a deliberately contrived example to show that Google was more sophisticated than the GP indicates...I have no comment on whether amazingribs.com really does have the best ribs preparation tips

Hover over the Samuru Logo on the results. We will tell you a bit about what kind of search we think you are doing.

http://www.samuru.com/?q=python+list+comprehension

While we get the same top result for this, we also show that WikiHow.com linked to the Python Docs. So you can see closely related articles grouped together.

This is useful for things like http://www.samuru.com/?q=samsung+apple+patent+press+release

But Google requires the words or the synonyms to be on the results page. So do we, but we know that a search for http://www.samuru.com/?q=cook+bbq+ribs is not just about how to make BBQ Ribs, but to make the best BBQ ribs, because this is a subjective topic, I like honey BBQ, someone else likes Mesquite. That factors in to our results.
