Got on the computer this morning to do a Google search, and
something was different. Gone were the cute graphics cum link having to do with
soccer (futebol as I know it) that when clicked upon would send the user to updated information about the World Cup games throughout the day.
What changed from yesterday to today?
Oh yeah, the US lost to Belgium. What are the implications here? It could be that the designer/programmer that puts
together the home page is out today… But
what if they stopped putting up the cute graphics and stats because of some jingoistic and tribal reasoning about Americans not caring now that their team is no longer in the running. And what, then, are the implications
of that? To me, if losing a game makes
us lose interest in the championship; I think we should never again intone the
words “peace in the middle east”. I
know, sounds convoluted, but think about it.
...Hell, could be the guy/gal (designer) is just sick...
