Google's Unexplained Phenomenon
“Google has created a great mystery this morning. If you go to Google’s homepage and click on today’s Google doodle, which is an image of a UFO, it takes you to to a general search for the term, “unexplained phenomenon.” reports Hartley Engel for Associated Content.
“Moreover, as of this writing, two of the top Google search terms are the aforementioned “unexplained phenomenon” and “top 10 unexplained phenomena.” What is baffling to many Web surfers about the Google unexplained phenomenon phenomenon is that typically, a Google doodle corresponds with a particular event such as a holiday or the birthday of a famous person. But that does not appear to be the case this morning,” reports Engel.
Engel writes, “Google has created a classic chicken or egg conundrum. Are “unexplained phenomenon” and “top 10 unexplained phenomena” top search terms because of the Google UFO doodle – which suggests that Google is purposely driving traffic to those topics – or did Google create the UFO logo in response to the popularity of the search terms “unexplained phenomenon” and “top 10 unexplained phenomena”?
“The Google unexplained phenomenon incident raises an interesting question: How much influence does Google have in terms of driving the news? It seems as though if Google chooses to, it can create a tremendous amount of buzz on any topic by simply creating a Google doodle that is representative of that particular topic,” writes Engel.
