Title: Google
Post by: BringBackEcoKat on April 14, 2015, 07:27:05 PM
Surely I am not the only person that has spent way too much time playing with the Google homepage today. But I was wondering, is there an end? Or am I just doomed to play forever.. or until Google has the mercy to change it?

Well instead of the horse just standing like a normal horse at the end while it counts up your score, the horse is standing on two legs, smiling, with a gold medal around it's neck.

So, they're preparing to start looking into the matter? Every American should be concerned about this news...

No, I just thought it was interesting.  This thread is called “Google” no other context, seemed appropriate.  :dunno:

you guys ever google some stupid crap to see what the auto fill thing predicts you're going to type? that's some crazy crap. I haven't done it but have seen some of the tweets about it that are sort of funny. also I google addresses to find out where to go with google maps. like it just shows the map of the place. pretty cool.

Not criticizing you. Just the coverage itself, which I also ran across earlier. Seems a bit premature.

Yeah it’s pretty click baity I thought and foreshadowy that it didn’t happen sooner and/or they are a monopoly.  I didn’t even read the article but that’s what I thought about the tweet.
