Google Custom Search's brutal internal inconsistencies

Especially annoying for users of services such as Search Tempest... Although it would be altogether much better if Craigslist had an API...

makes no sense. Surely Google has the people who can fix this but maybe they don't have the will. Why?

I hope Google is working on this. We'd all enjoy the better search and information system.

I'm lucky if I get two results from searches. NEVER used to be this way. C'mon, Google.

it's horrible, can't get it to work right.
