I Be Proselytizin'

Ms. Curious:
i cant read your freaking zazang comment
did you stop it at "an..." or is it cut off?
cuz theres no expand option

me: it's cut off

Ms. Curious: its annoying me

me: leads to yelp page

Ms. Curious: oh its your yelp review?

me: yeah

Ms. Curious: ohh no wonder

me: what facebook does is it cuts off the first xx characters of your yelp review as a header

Ms. Curious:
oh gocha
cuz i tried to click somewhere and it took me to yelp so i was like meh

me:
haha
even though it was yelp?
surprising

Ms. Curious:
well i didnt want to see the yelp page
i was just wondering wat you said

me:
WHY
BUT MY REVIEW IS IN THERE
READ IT
IT WILL BE THE BEST REVIEW EVER

Ms. Curious:
also why are you liking 50 million pages
my newsfeed is flooded with
"hoon likes yada yada yada bla blah"

me:
i'm sort of doing research
i don't want to bore you
but do you want to get bored with my geek talk?

Ms. Curious: am i not usually?

me:
"like" is going to redefine how we search for information
like google did 10 years ago

Ms. Curious: how so?

me:
so up to this point
the main way google (or any other search engines) indexed and ranked its results was through links
like how many inbound and outbound links a page had regarding the keyword
"like" incorporates the factor of "people's voice"
are you still with me

Ms. Curious: yea

me:
so google did an awesome job
defining what "relevance" was in an objective way
but it wasn't able to anticipate how people felt about certain things in general
"like" does that

so let's say you search for "actors for 'inception'"
usually
oh nevermind
have you seen the movie
i don't want to ruin it for you

Ms. Curious:
no i havent yet
i LIKE LIKE LIKE THAT BOY
from 500 days of summer

me:
hahaha
okay
so you know he's in it

Ms. Curious:
YEA
i do i do

me:
let's say you search for "actors in inception"
it won't necessarily pull the information regarding him because you're not searching for 'joseph gordon-levitt" directly
but let's say enough girls click on "like" on joseph gordon-levitt because of inception
it gives the search engine the chance to consider indexing the information regarding joseph gordon-levitt on your search for "actors in inception"
making the search results more useful and relevant
are you still with me?

Ms. Curious:
yaa
joseph gordon levitt
of course im w you
LIKE

me:
sigh
not the fact that you like him

Ms. Curious: hahaha
i KNOW

me: but how "like" can potentially change the game

Ms. Curious:
but im just liking it again
so you know
that hes relevant!

me:
http://www.facebook.com/hoonster322#!/JosephGordonLevitt?ref=sgm

Ms. Curious: he has a facebook page??

me: "Ms. Curious likes Joseph Gordon-Levitt" about to pop on my feed in any second now...

Ms. Curious:
hahahah
no i refuse!!

me:
why
you're hindering the advancement of technology
don't be late to the party

Ms. Curious: is that a gorup?

me: no

Ms. Curious: or is the only thing you can do to Like it

me: it's his facebook page

Ms. Curious: cant join it?

me:
if you "like" it
you join it

Ms. Curious:
oh
FINEEE

me: and you get a feed of his updates on your main page

Ms. Curious:
where do i email him and ask when hes going to be in SF
can i like it again

me: no

Ms. Curious: there needs to be a REALLY like

me: you liked it once

Ms. Curious: not some half-assed like

me: it's not like the american idol voting process

Ms. Curious: shouldn't be weighted equally as my REALLY like

me:
you're just one voice
it's democratic

Ms. Curious:
sigh
but im chinese :)
communist

me: hahaha
