    Does anyone have any evidence for what criteria Google use when determining what is to be listed when you ask it to define a term?

    TIA

    Hi,

    it depends a lot on the term, but when I do a definition search I usually end up at wikipedia or a page on a site called "glossary" or "faq".


    Cheers,
    Paz.

    Anyone else??

    Apart from the obvious sources I just can't seem to peg down the criteria as results come from pages using a variety of markup techniques and with various page ranks.
