Google Introduces Domain Blocking To Search 323
An anonymous reader writes "We recently discussed a new Chrome extension that was introduced to block specified websites from appearing in search results. Now, Google has introduced a new feature that hide results from unwanted domains right from the search page. This is yet another way to find more of what you want on Google by blocking the sites you don't want to see at all in search result. The so-called 'experts exchange' or 'online eHow to guide' would be first on my blocked list."
Another neat recent addition was the introduction of Recipe View, which adds depth to food preparation searches.

If your referrer is from Google, they put the answer at the bottom of the page because Google's TOS would blacklist them if they didn't.
If you're coming at it virtually any other way, they don't put the answer there.

Experts Exchange trick (Score:2, Informative)
Experts Exchange let google crawlers see the full content to boost their search ranks. Open the cached page in a search and scroll right to the bottom for the answers.

You can manually add sites to block by going to the blocked sites manager:

I wonder what it would make of:
Bukkake udon: Cold udon served with various toppings liberally sprinkled on top
- from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Udon#Cold [wikipedia.org]
Well, there was the udon, and other dishes, well before there was ... that other thing.
"Bukkake" is from butsu, meaning to hit something, and kakeru, to cover something. Together the meaning is a bit like "to cover something with lots of stuff all at once" -- which, alone, is perfectly innocuous, and could easily refer to food toppings or heavy blankets. It's only in certain other contexts that this gets at all off-color.
