Don't you love Google--Feb, 2006 repost
I've been using Google's desktop programs for a while now and really love the web clip functions. By tracking the pages I visit with RSS feeds, it posts a link whenever a page has been updated. Since I've been obsessing over Asian cinema lately, Google is constantly hooking me up with the latest contributions to Asian cinema blogs. Imagine my surprise, however, when my own blog popped up on a link. It's strange to see your own name and a blurb about giant jellyfish appear. It also made me feel a little important because Google had found me. It served as a validation to the importance of my ranting and raving in cyberspace. And then, just like that, the notification had changed to the next update. My 15 seconds of website fame was over.
