Subject: Why does Google have two Ls in its title at the moment?
Shoot I agree on that one. Google is my everything. Im the smartest man alive, simply because I use Google to answer every question my brain comes up with. Why does the sun burn so brightly? BECAUSE GOOGLE SAYS SO THATS WHY!

There was an internet before Google? I thought everyone just hung around on AOL pre-Google days.

Or, it could turn out to be just like everybody else and just sit around eating E-cheetos while using itself to search for the latest nude pics of Angelina Jolie, or whatever Disney teen is in the news at the time.

The idea is that it takes extra effort and time to write properly, and they’d rather save the time. If you can still be understood, what’s the harm? While most of the time a sloppy post CAN be understood, the use of proper grammar, punctuation, and spelling is generally seen as respectable and desirable on most forums. It demonstrates an effort made to be understood, and to make your post an easy and pleasant read. By making this effort, you can often elicit more positive responses from the community, and instantly mark yourself as someone worth talking to.

Depending on what I was trying to find, I'd use Yahoo, Alta Vista, and damn, I can't even remember the third one anymore.

I miss the days before Google. Webcrawler, Lycos, Yahoo!, Northern Lights... those were the days. Of course, I use Bing (Microsoft) now, as Google scares me. At least with Microsoft, you know that they're after your money. Google's all like, "No, it's cool, just take our stuff for free. Don't worry about it."
I don't get any spam at all using my 2 gmail accounts.
Also whenever Google has a funky banner (like the 11 in it this time), just hover your mouse over the image and it'll explain what it is. Yay for fun facts!

my guess is knowing google, they write an algorithm and it detects certain words in the title and then displays the add, thats why when i signed up for a spam blocker, and received a bunch of emails from support, registration, etc. i had a bunch of adds for recipes with SPAM in them. Was not one of the better targeted adds i think. lol
