Google, the world’s largest Internet search engine – has become a house hold name. Need to find something out? Google it (yes, it’s become a verb). Can’t figure out how to spell something? Google it. It’s quickly becoming everything we need – maps, shopping, news, and now even a cell phone.
Google has also taken a shot at being relevant on a day to day basis on their home page. Regularly, Google will commemorate happenings, events and the like by slightly changing their logo (the Google Facade) in a way that makes it evident that they are remembering the date. These include Valentine’s day, Earth Day, Dr. Seuss’ birthday, and, yes, Michael Jackson’s Birthday.
But here, on the anniversary of the worst day in American History, Google’s facade remains silent as to the happenings of the day.
Why is this? Is it because Google has ZERO respect for the national that allowed them to drag in revenues of $5.37 billion in just one quarter of last year?
According to a USA TODAY campaign finance analysis, Google employees gave 98% of their campaign contributions last year to Democratic Candidates. I’ll let you do the math as to the company’s political orientation.
What does this mean? I’m not going to tell you what to do – but I’m going to be using Bing from now on.
