Comments on: How I Gained Traffic and Lost My Soul: Google Garbage™ Post-mortem http://agitationist.com/google-garbage-post-mortem served irregularly for your edification Sat, 26 Mar 2011 22:25:45 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Biff http://agitationist.com/google-garbage-post-mortem/comment-page-1#comment-395 Biff Sat, 02 Jan 2010 17:38:53 +0000 http://agitationist.com/?p=363#comment-395 It's amusing how you baited Google with their own junk. I just looked at Google Trends and found "palindrome" near the top of the list. It seems every twit on tweeter has discovered and must tweet about today's date, 01022010, a palindrome. If that's not enough, Google's "live web" shows these twits silly comments on page one. What progress we're making with technology! It’s amusing how you baited Google with their own junk.

I know nothing about the blogging/tech world... I hate things like "facebook feed" and "twitter," but I'm fascinated and amused by the way that you went about testing and so-to-say "hated on" various new pretensions of the world wide web. thanks for making me laugh! i'll be following (that is, what I can understand). this blog is hilarious!

I have also just recently explored Google Trends looking for topics for one of my blogs, but didn't think about going to the extremes as you did. I wonder how long it will take before someone writes a script to gather info gleaned from GT, and turn those into posts???? Interesting test.
