Googlewhacking?

I have been introduced to a new term this evening, ladies and gentlemen: Googlewhacking.

Hmmm, you ask, "Isn't this a family blog?" Easy, killer... this is a term used to define an instance when two words are entered into Google's search engine, and one single solitare result returns.

It's MUCH HARDER then you would think to actually achieve this. Give it a try when you have a month to spare. Thanks to googlewhacking.com (yes, this is a real site) I found this term: Google Search: gigabit infatuations

The best part about gigabit infatuations is that someone paid to be in their sponsored links section!

This is a Google world we live in, isn't it? 60 minuntes did an article on the recently gone public Google. Their next venture has something to do with a cell phone with a UPC reader so you can bar-scan your favorite items at the Giant Supermarket and Google will tell you if Wegman's has it for cheaper.

What's next?

  1. I wondered if you caught the spot on channel 2 last night about Google. It was really interesting, wasn't it? Perhaps we should purchase some stock or is it not available to the public? You should have gotten a job with them!!!!!
    Lady Bug is soooooooooooo funny! Is that the first time she actually saw a live lady bug? Wish I had been there to watch- looked like the lady bug had no chance of escape!! Mommasan
