Charlie covering his ears
Two annoying girls moved into the apartment above me.
I'm forced to hear every dumb thing they say.
These are my letters to them.

“How does Google work? Is someone hired to look up your search and send it back to you?” Yes, and they search for it on Google.

    Actually, they’re not too far off. A few years ago Google revealed the secret behind their search engine: Pigeons.

    Not far off from their April Fool’s joke this year, either. Autocompleters check your spelling for you and make search suggestions: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=blB_X38YSxQ&feature=player_embedded

    Yes, GAC. They’re the world’s fastest researchers! They finish ten page papers in mere minutes! Information on the tsetse fly? Amaturish at best. Rise and fall of the Roman Empire? BOR-ING! Researching the hoatzin? Close but no cigar…and surprisingly, this is one of the smarter things they’ve said.

    Why didn’t they just Google it?

  8. KelliAnn says:

    Google works by dividing the universe by zero.

    It’s all a conspiracy!

  11. Sarah says:

    Yes. They also not only give you the results in under a second (and have time to tell you how many results they gave and how fast they did it), but they predict what you’re going to ask them and give you all the results for all of these predictions.

    Actually, the way search engines work is pretty cool. There are software programs that start with a popular website and follow every link they find, indexing sites along the way. Then, when somebody queries the search engine, it pulls up the list of all the websites it stored that match the query.

    No, ladies, that would be an online reference librarian–the world has those, too, and they can usually figure out what you’re trying to ask but can’t put into words. Might be a plan…but you might have to Google to find one.
