Admittedly, Google has started sorting the web by content type with news.google.com, which I enjoy. Yet when I want, say, a user review of a product, Google strikes out. I used to use the usenet for this sort of thing, and groups.google.com still has some usefulness, but it's time that a search for "vostro 1400 replacement battery review" distinguishes between forum posts and companies a-shillin'.

It wouldn't be that difficult to start. Separate content from sites powered by engines like vBulletin from typical web pages, as an example.
