Threw a few basic keyword searches at it and it just returns Wikipedia / Britannica as the top results, consistently.
Then I went fishing for anime torrents and got some fairly decent results.
I did some basic "news of the day" searches and I get back exactly what you'd expect. Links to PBS and NYT and WaPo for the most part.
