Topeka Renames itself Google

Post by shinatoo »

Just a suggestion. How about using the subject line for a subject so people will have some idea what your post is about. Can you imagine how hard it would be to navigate this forum if everyone used subject lines like you do?

We've only gone over this 5000 times, guys.

Anyway, interesting article. I was thinking KC would be a good place for Google to start, but never got motivated enough to actually try and woo them.

KC and OP weren't mentioned on 41 "Action" news this morning - but STL and Indianapolis were.

There is a BIG push here in Topeka to get Google's attention. changing the town's name (albeit in a proclamation) and having businesses and other entities change their name to reflect this united front is a nice change of pace for my hometown.

Sorry to offend you all. I should have stayed away.

Not offended. I was just asking you, hopefully politely, to change the way you do your subject lines.

But then how will she pout? You can't hold your breath until you turn blue on the Internet.
