Glomo's Thoughts on the World: Search Engines

Howdy my intro-net followers.

I'd like to think of myself as sorta cuttin' edge on this here world wide web. I mean, I blog, right? So you'd think that means I know what's goin' on - but I've just gotta say, something about this whole thing bothers me.

I hear all the time about how "a world of knowledge" is available at my fingertips, well, I sure haven't found it. Then somebody told me to just "google it," and when I finally found out what that meant I went ahead and typed, "world of knowledge" in that searchy bar thing and, well, I found stuff, but it sure as heck was not as exciting as you people keep making it out to be.

So being the smart and patient guy that I am I even tried typin' other junk in there like, "Stuff I Want To Know About," or "How To Do Junk." And you know what I came up with? NOTHIN'!

Then the other day someone said to me, "Glomo, you've got this all wrong. If you want to find all the information about anything you want to know then don't bother with a search, just try Wikipedia. You can type in any topic and it will tell you EVERYTHING there is to know about it!"

I have to say, I was suckered and thought this was my answer, so I tried it. I typed junk, I found out about junk, it seemed pretty cool. So then I thought to myself, "Glomo, there is just one test ya gotta give this thing to make sure it's as good as people say. Type your own name in that there line and see what it comes up with!"

So I did, and you know what I found?

THIS: Glomo.

I don't know what that is, but it ain't me!

So we're back to the drawing board. I think I'm pert near done with this whole web thing. So to all my loyal viewers out there let me just say, don't bother with the rest of the web. Just come here to my fellow Trio-ites and my blog and we'll tell ya everything you need to know.
