Finding High-Quality Information on the Web

The internet is always evolving as time goes on; and just think that it's only been around for a very, relatively short time, yet we're hooked and dependent on it already!  I realize I sound very ignorant and naive, but I honestly have never really thought about how Google organizes search results. I obviously knew key words allow for the results to show up.  I'm very impressed that Google works so hard to give us results that we want and I'm very thankful! When I do research for science papers, I know that articles that have been cited many times are often very good or ground breaking articles.  Google uses this same idea to give us the best search results: sites that are linked the most are at the top of the list.  Also I learned about the different ways you can format your search entry in order to get results you want.  "-site:.com", "site: gov" both help you limit your search results by domain.
