I find google results totally shit these days. A chunk of my day is often spent researching/looking for stuff with a 'commercial' bias (non-porn). For the most part google is only good if I want spammy directories or adwords pages. For 90% of searches MSN in its still beta state provides FAR better results.

I'd far rather skip other a few spam pages and find the results I want than have the first 100 results return useless crap because both the spam pages and the relevant sites are filtered by Google.

I've always wondered on those that sing Googles praises for the past 14 months or so (since the first big change/filter introduction) how many actually have to use the search feature on a regular basis for anything at least semi-serious. Seems to me most of them base their views purely on whther their own sites have ranked well or not and not on the actual results returned.
