In reply to Robert Durran:
The phrase annoys me because because it's a) the opposite of the truth b) just a marketing term and there's no reason to regurgitate it unless you're getting paid to do so.
I'd say it's the internet that's fantastic for finding stuff out, not Google. Google could be erased from the web completely and it wouldn't make much difference. The only Google thing I ever used was the cinema listings pages. But they stopped that some time ago so now I don't use any of their web pages.
PS. Apologies to Dave that this has nothing to do with Sardinia. But hey at least it bumps your topic back up.
