Google ABCs
Google is the modern day Oracle of Delphi. Ask Google something and it tells you the answer, or at least that is how we Web commoners tend to think. If so let’s start with the basics, the things my three year old son needs to learn…the A,B,Cs.
Of course your queries may vary, where you are from what you search and of course if people want to game this thing who knows what you might see so tread carefully if you try the live links otherwise read what it said when we tried it complete with a weak rhyme to make it fun.
Google says…
A is for < a > tags to make Web hyperlinks.
B is Wikipedia for letter B but with 4chan wait and see.
