It's always worked fine for me when it comes to finding simple things with a search. I think it's deteriorated in some ways though. I don't find the advanced search operators reliable anymore (eg. give me all the news about a topic published between certain dates) and I think it caps collections of things very early now, rather than returning the "billion" of results it says it has (eg. give me more than the 1000 most popular cat memes that I've seen before, or all the books about beaches).
