School starts tomorrow!

Not for me; for my kids. The whole merry-go-round starts up again, and I’ll be needing to go to sleep earlier. Yes, just like I’m doing now. Gimme a break, there was last-minute laundry to do.

One thought on “School starts tomorrow!”

  1. I knew search engines, and the internet in general, had gotten really crappy, but I didn’t fully realize how bad it was until last night, when I had to track down and print off a metric/standard conversion chart for my kid’s physics class.

    I mean, that’s a basic level of functionality, right?

    Both Bing and Google played “let’s show you something close, but not quite, to what you were asking for”, and then when they’d deign to show me something that actually fit my criteria, it would have obvious errors.
    It took me the better part of an hour to find (3 pages down on a very specific search) and print something useful (if still less than ideal).
    It would have been much quicker and less aggravating to scan and resize a couple of pages from my pocket reference book.
