Google News Credibility Foiled By 15-Year Old

Hello, I have brought you a GIGGLE this evening.

Aparently a 15 year old boy really put the uhoh on Google. You can read the whole article here.




Reading through SEO focused blog entries, Vandetta found an article that
explained how to fool Google's news system by writing fake press releases.
Sensing an opportunity to experiment and play a joke on his friends, the
self-described "Google fanboy" decided to see what would happen if he submitted
a fake Google press release claiming the 15-year old New Jersey student was
Google's youngest employee.


I have to admit I really like that Google aparently took this in good fun and even told the young man he may still have a future at Google like he had hoped to some day! Here is the young mans apology post. He seems like a smart kid to me! LOL

Until tomorrow .... and I haven't forgoten your update, tomorrow you will have new content!

Peace
Baby
