It is truly hard to believe just how much search engines and the Internet as a whole has impacted our lives over the past 10-12 years. But I am willing to bet that things are just getting warmed up….

These days, it’s difficult to imagine the Internet without search engines. As Google and Yahoo like to proudly proclaim, a PPC advertisement on one of their networks reaches “98% of active Internet users” with well over half of that metric coming straight from a search engine. So . . . with such astounding success, there’s no better time than to predict the inevitable demise of the search engine.

Search engine death is inevitable simply because search engines in and of themselves really aren’t necessary. A search engine is an agent. Search engines are glue that bring Internet users and content sites together. Source: Digital Moses
