What did an Earthquake Have to do with Google Search?

When I felt the earth move (July 7, 2010) I posted the position and magnitude of the quake within minutes of the quake  (see the two posts below). This accomplished 2 things:
  • Make it easy for folks to know the facts about the earthquake
  • Test how fast Google Search would Index my new post
My post held #1 on Google search fifteen minutes after it was posted and was on page 1 for 10 minutes.

Other sites (newspapers TV stations, etc.) pushed my post to oblivion.  Google Blogger is a tool that is searched by Google and can react FAST. It was fun to watch a real time view of how Google search reevaluated page listings

Small business can use the Google Blogger to complement their web sites with activity based content.  Contextual links to the  "Buy Page" can be included in appropriate posts.
