The Google Effect
October 7, 2004
I'm still trying to decide if I should be happy or worried that people sometimes google my name. I mean, afterall, I google friends' names all the time just to make sure they're living. I guess until I see "Ambra Nykol sucks" or "Ambra Nykol's SSN and phone records" as a search term on my referrer log, then I'll think the best and not the worst. Call me a nerd, but my daily (and I mean DAILY) comic relief is reading the list of Google, Yahoo, and other search engrine referrals to this site. But one in particular today totally had me laughing, and I just had to share it with the people:
"How to slipper my bad child"
For the civilized, let me *learn you: "to slipper" means "to spank". Among some of the more frequent searches that lead people to nykola.com:
- "shoe buying addiction"
- "Kerry is my homeboy tshirt"
- "Removing dreadlocks from cats"
- "men wearing womens jeans"
- "men in tight jeans"
I sincerely hope they found what they were looking for.
*It's time for me to finish the Nyktionary. You know it's bad when you start using slang to define slang. In anycase, the vernacular translation makes different verbial use of "To learn", which means to school, to educate, to enlighten.

"Removing dreadlocks from cats"
This is too much. I have finally been inspired to hook up sitemeter on my blogger account.
