Yes, those Shinnfans with IQ’s higher than 109 just realized that the title of this blogpost is, in fact, the word Google backward. There’s a very good (and very clever) reason for this. It’s a reason so brilliant that I only wish I could come up with something so wacky. You can read the article for yourself by clicking on the link in the title, and I hope you do. Such a parody is more evidence of the Google-soaked culture that I’m working hard to perpetuate. Incidentally, the Wikipedia article on elgooG elucidated an interesting side-benefit of the backward search engine: while Google was banned by China’s communist government, Chinese people started using elgooG and typing in their searches backward in their efforts to seek out information. “Parody assists parity,” said Andrew Shinn, founder of the fictitious Googlewatch Redux cultural commentary firm. Those Shinnfans with enormous amounts of discretionary time (such as those who are starting businesses or who are temporarily unemployed) will also get a kick out of Googlewhacking.
Enjoy,
Andrew
