Open letter to Google.

Hello my dear Googlers

My comment has nothing to do with google suggest, I find it very useful.
Now what really squeezes the sh.. out of me is ONE THING and this is it:

Why the hell do you allow a website to show up multiple times on one search query?

Why GOOGLE? Why?

It seams so simple to deal with, and trust me when I say, that I AM NOT A GENIUS!

Is there not a way of eliminating, the multiple exposer of a given website by means of it´s URL?

If you go ahead and search for "algarve car" you will come up with this:

www.portugal-cars.com/ algarve-car-hire/Aljezur-Car-Hire.html
www.portugal-cars.com/algarve-car-hire/ car-rental-in-faro-portugal.html
www.portugal-cars.com/ algarve-car-hire/car-hirein-portugal.html
www.portugal-cars.com/ algarve-car-hire/Quarteira-Car-Hire.html
www.portugal-cars.com/algarve-car-hire/aljezur.html
www.portugal-cars.com/ algarve-car-hire/autoverhuur-algarve.html

Etc.........................

Now please excuse me if I sound dramatic, but, HOW HARD can it be to eliminate the following results after the first one has been shown?

1 URL per search! That in my opinion would reduce your 8 BILLION pages to what?

Is this in your interest?
Would you be hurting OTHER interests?

Well bottom line is....

It is not my business...

Keep providing a great service, the new tool is great, and all I ask is...

Let me know if someone actually reads this.

Thank You

Hilton Santos

P.S.

1-I can tell that every URL "is" different, from the others, my idea is for you to maybe find a way to process the first 20 or 30 characters of a url up to the end of .com .net .org .whatever and then ban all results, except the FIRST!
