"Google will kill your startup if you’re doing text-based search".... That's probably the most pessimistic way of looking at this. I don't understand why journalism is so hell bent on mixing emotions with what they report. Just tell what happened. We'll interpret it on our own.

As far as Google and text search and Bershad's comment go, he's 100% correct. A more interesting way to look at is as an advice to entrepreneurs to explore different fields. Google's already doing text search. If you want to build anything out of text search, Google with their huge market and brains are probably already thinking/doing it. Don't waste your time with it.. Explore something else.. Images/Videos/RSS Feeds/Social Information... There's a huge plethora of data out there.

"Killing a startup" and "Just being simply better" are very different things.

Bing's current search results:

  misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
