Obama and The Google

Thanks KQ– I’ll have to check.

I love Nate Silver too. Going forward, I will try to be more methodical. But I want to ask you something: Do you think that the fact that Fox News accounted for 5% of the first headline is statistically significant? After all, Google culls from about 5000-6000 sources worldwide, so what are the odds?

There were a few blogs I read about how Google’s algorithm works but they were beyond me. It seems that others are concerned that a site called examiner.com gets too much emphasis, even though it is an aggregator too.

Kes, it wasn’t really that hard, but I do appreciate your kind words! I wanted to prove that the press was too hard on Obama and I’m glad I did learn it wasn’t as bad as I’d thought. I’m glad that’s the info I could bring here too.

Thanks, Sue. As you may have read, my old PC died around Christmas, and when I got this new one, it seemed like a good way to learn to use my new one. It did take a couple of days, but at least I feel more comfortable on this one. Now, I have a lot of catching up here!

I saw that thread last night, Em and I agree that until we have a nation with more critical thinkers, we will get whatever Fox News serves up. Going forward, I’m going to keep tabs on a daily basis, so it won’t take so much time.

Thanks Javez! I learned my lesson– there are lots of good news sources and many more stories than just those about Geithner and the Reptilians.

The program was invented by a Google employee Krishna Bharat. They say they are constantly tweaking it. And the fact is, there IS some human involvement. But it’s much more random than planned.

Hi E’cat! When you go to Google and type in Obama year in review, be sure to hit the NEWS button, and not just the search engine. Here’s the link:

I’m glad you understand this kind of OCD-like behavior!!

Well, friends, it’s that time. See you all tomorrow– if this computer doesn’t die like my old one did!!

Thanks, Gretel!I haven’t been at HP in a couple of months and even though I consider going, I really can’t face it. I am glad you think others are wising up about that site. It’s getting pretty blatant.

I got carried away.

See above– my mind was so blown, I didn’t even reply to you properly.

O-M-G !!!! What the hell is that? I love that! Franken, if only I’d known about that site– Jesus. Yep– blew my mind. It reminds me of six degrees of Kevin Bacon in a way. What is it, actually?

Never saw those! PLAY THE FUCKING NOTE! will be our new phrase, KQ. Thanks!

AdLib– Goodfellas is one I never tire of watching. And from Fargo, our favorite quote, for some reason, is the way she says, “He’s a nice man.” Maybe because it’s so Minnesotan– even from Fargo.

I just read that he’s going to survive and that he didn’t have a heart attack. Too bad.
