Google如何看待Twitter?

在谷歌搜索时如果你选择自动完成,随着你在搜索框中输入词语的变化,系统会提示各种热门搜索问题。举个例子,如果你输入“George,” 会提示“George Washington、George Bush、George Clooney以及其他著名的George…”。

不过要是你用谷歌搜索“Twitter”时,这结果不可避免地让人产生怀疑。在搜索框输入“Twitter is” ,下方的提示都是些比较作恶的文字,如:retarded(弱智的)、useless(无用的)、lame(软弱的)、pointless(无意义的)。请看图示:

对谷歌这样诋毁Twitter微博客是不是有点愤愤不平?尽管看上去确实很有故事,不过实际情况并非如此(并非有意侵犯Twitter。)怎么说呢?如果你同样在搜索框输入“Google is”,下方的提示有“making us stupid(让我们变得更愚蠢)、watching you(在看着你)”。不过,这个搜索结果还是挺有意思的,我之前都没注意。

What Does Google Think of Twitter?
When you start typing a search on Google, if you have auto-complete enabled, it will start to recommend different queries based on what you’re typing. So, for example, if you write “George,” it will suggest George Washington, George Bush, and George Clooney, among others well-known George’s.

However, if you’re using Google to try and figure out what exactly Twitter (Twitter) is, the results are a bit suspect. Type “Twitter is” into the iconic search box and Google will suggest words like retarded, useless, lame, and pointless. Take a look:

A bit of resentment towards the microblogging startup being played out on Google (Google)? While that would make quite a story, that’s almost definitely not the case. How do we know? If you type in “Google is,” you’ll get suggestions like “making us stupid” and “watching you.” Nonetheless, it’s an amusing little intricacy of the search engine we previously weren’t aware of.
