Google Fish

Most jokes don't make me laugh - in fact, I have very little emotions in general. I think they have been diluted over the years from all the awesome comments I get here. That being said, this post on Twitter from Gary Illyes of Google made me smile - which is a big thing for me.

Here it is:

You have a former Googler mocking Google's algorithm updates, calling them a quality update. Then you have Gary Illyes say "sounds fishy" obviously referencing good old Fred.

I am offline, and figured I let you all smile about this tweet. Of course, to those hit by Fred or any of the unconfirmed Google updates - this probably won't make you smile. But I've been there, I was hit by Google algorithms, so I can laugh.

This was also a funny one for the archives:

This post was scheduled to go live today but was written earlier - I am currently offline today.
