Something happened to AOL on April 30. Search for "traghetti greci" and look at the results: the first 22 items are from 1 and the same website. I'm monitoring this keyword and know for sure that this started on April 30 only.
Anybody knows what's going on?

Hmmm...apparently they have turned off their "clustering" for some phrases at least.
I was able to see a bunch of Amazon links also with a search for "animal books." Not as bad as your search, but the 2nd page of results are mostly Amazon books.
Wonder if they are going to keep this or if it's just a temporary glitch. The engines learned years ago that clustering is much better for the user, which is why they've been using it for so long.
AOL looks like an old version of AltaVista from the mid-90's now!

Is it just me, or is it getting cooler in the evenings...?

Good observation re AOL results - very weird.
