Social media and tacos

August 8th, 2009

This may be a ridiculous post, but it has a point. Really. Even though (and I tried) I can’t figure out how to make some kind of grand analogy between social media and tacos.

Over at Kutenda, we do the occasional experimentation with The Google, so we’re constantly updating how our search marketing tools work based on our experimentation with influencing Google. We’re not trying to game the system, don’t worry. We’re just very focused on how we can make our technology work well enough so that your average person can get good results in local search.

So what does that have to do with social media and tacos? Well, in testing local search, I thought it would be simpler to keep my search terms relatively ridiculous so I can make sure that for the bizarro search terms “social media and tacos” I would be pretty close to the top in my local area.

And, if you must know, I really love tacos. Not the fake American kind with ground beef and cheese in crunchy crumbly fried tortillas. No, the real thing – with meat, cilantro and onions, green salsa and homemade soft corn tortillas. The kind of goodness you can get at a small taco stand in Longmont or Denver or Broomfield (alas, not Boulder, as far as I can tell).

Social media? That would be more of a love-hate type of thing.
