For me personally, google is much, much worse than before. I don't find what I need.
What I think is sad is that alternative search engines still work almost the same as google.
Of course he's going to find spam if he searches for the most spamable content. But that's now what I usually search for - mostly I search for programming related topics or trouble shooting. The old google would give me the right result straight away, the new google gives me some page on the main vendors site that is unrelated.
There are many ways niche search engines could come up to solve this problem, but none of them seem really interested.
