Googlism

Want to know what Google thinks of any person, place, thing or date? Googlism it! You call up the Googlism page and enter in the subject matter, and Googlism then lists snippets of information that is culls from the Google-indexed web pages of the world. Sometimes accurate, mostly hilarious, it’s always interesting. Of course, the results are not really Google’s opinion, they’re those of the web site owners of the world. Within the Google results are the countless numbers thoughts and opinions about thousands upon thousands of different topics, people, names, things, places and dates and Googlism simply searches Google and lets you know what website owners are saying about what you keyed in.

To give you an idea of what types of results are spit out, I picked a subject bound to have a wide variety of opinions–Hillary Clinton.
