Hacker News Reader

I want a search engine where I can upvote and downvote sites, making them go up and down in the results. Unlike HN, this should not primarily impact that website's global ranking, but specifically the results I get. There should be a way to give -10 points to w3schools and the like, sending them to page 2, or -∞ to Pinterest to get rid of it forever.

I found (here [0] on Hacker News) the uBlacklist extension for Firefox, it does exactly that. There's a "block this website" on each Google result. Good bye w3schools .

It will not work well, popular opinion is not always best. Also search engines already use come kind of upvoting: it is most likely page is being upvoted when you visit it from search results (probably this is one of reasons why many bullshit results on top).
