Google – I Thought I Knew You?

You don’t REALLY know someone until you get back to their apartment, pop the cork on a bottle of wine, dim the lights, stare into their eyes and listen to them gush about every detail of their lives…and then you still don’t them.

It’s only after a few years of soul-stretching challenges do you really become intimately acquainted — married or not.

Well, as silly as the metaphor seems, that’s how I felt about Google Search recently. I thought I knew her as that clean but clever, elegant but athletic, beautiful eyed search muse behind a set of fancy bifocals. Turns out, I was only partially correct.

The vision of Google Search I had was a bit weird, I’ll admit… as I’ve come to find out, it was also a bit too dainty.

Google Search is much more powerful and complicated that I ever imagined! A social media marketer with the right “touch” can find much, much more than I ever knew.

The thing about Google Search is, she does a great job of hiding her search weapons and sleuthisms. Now, this is not a bad thing, not at all… there is something that is devastatingly attractive about a beautiful thing that is deep with intrigue and prowess.

So, now, I would like to introduce you to the REAL Google Search, but be careful… she is quick and sometimes a bit messy..I hope that’s OK. These tips will help you bend the web to your will using things only a few soothsayers can find using the “new” Google Search…
