Google Techs, Webmasters Mingle

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the i-don't-know-those-dance-moves dept.

Steve Nixon writes "Free-flowing beer, live music, karaoke and arcade games kept the party raging at the Googleplex the other night, but the real action was unfolding inside a sterile conference room at Google's headquarters. That's where the cunning internet entrepreneurs who constantly try to manipulate Google's search engine results for a competitive edge were trying to make the most of a rare opportunity to match wits face-to-face with the company's top engineers."

    This isn't just *some corporation who is after your dollar*

    This is _Google_

    Most of us here instantly ejaculate profusely inside our pants upon the mere mention of its name.

    So I'm sending a big FUCK YOU to all of you and yours.

    Have a nice day.

    When you're done with the party, look at the way your RSS feed for custom google news works. Or more accurately, doesn't work. For one thing, most of the custom search entries are missing GUIDs. But not all are, which says something about the code.

    Plus when something goes from being posted "29 minutes ago" to "35 minutes ago", that doesn't mean it's a new story and needs to be sent again.

    Yeah yeah, "beta" blah blah. Must be nice to never have to make your software ever actually work, since it's in perpetual "beta". Is that what you get if you can ifgure out your little application tests, an excuse for your software not working?
