In the ground of search engine news, a peculiar press release caught my attention today. Claiming to be from Google, the release was titled “Google Unveils New Erotica Search Engine,” introducing Grotica—an erotica-only search engine. Intriguing, right? Let’s dive into the twists and turns of this potentially controversial revelation.
Grotica.com Site Mystery
Upon attempting to access Grotica.com, I hit a roadblock—it was down. This prompted me to explore the Whois information, revealing an unexpected twist. The domain was registered by none other than WebmasterWorld, a renowned webmaster forum. A puzzle emerges—what’s the connection between Google and Webmaster World?
Webmaster World’s Editorial Experiment?
Speculation arises. Is Webmaster World, led by individuals like Brett, conducting an experiment with the editorial process of press release distribution sites, especially those indexed in Google News? Could this be a strategic move to test the response and income generated by such content distribution?
Dissecting the False Release
Dated September 15, 2005, the release detailed Google’s plans to delve into the adult content market with Grotica. It claimed the use of advanced image processing tools and an extensive keyword search function tailored for explicit content. Red flags emerge, such as the release’s style and the dubious PR contact information—Linda S. Boreman, 650.253.4950 (the real Google media contact number), [email protected]. Is this a joke or a serious venture?
Google’s Defense Mechanism
Anticipating objections, Google emphasizes the separation of Grotica from its main web services. The company assures users that filtering software like SafeSearch and NetNanny can easily block access to the site for minors. But is this enough to quell concerns?
Pressbox’s Oversight
The release should have set off alarms at Pressbox. The style, the contact details, and the questionable hiring of Linda Lovelace, a famous porn star, should have raised eyebrows. Is Pressbox lacking editorial scrutiny, and should they consider hiring qualified editors?
Conclusion
In the labyrinth of Grotica’s unveiling, questions outnumber answers. Is it a legitimate venture, a prank, or an editorial experiment by Webmaster World? The blurry lines leave us pondering the true nature of Grotica.
