I turned "safesearch=off" and then tried some suggestive terms like "analyst" and "sextuplets" to see what I got as I go! Surprisingly not much bad came up along the way. Mostly thanks to the "Sex and the City" movie ;) Although as I went I did get "naughty girls in your neighborhood" in the sponsored links. So you might not want to do instant search while hooked up to the work projector giving a presentation!

Impressive that page rank is keeping things moderately safe even with safesearch=off.

Overall I see this as a neat gimmick but pretty much just a waist of computing power. An impressive display of map reduce based programming though.
