What's that?
Google announced today on its blog that its launching a daily trivia game called "A Google a day". According to Google "A Google a Day is a new daily puzzle that can be solved using your creativity and clever search skills on Google." Unlike traditional trivia games where you cant cheat by looking up the answer on Google , here the questions are so tricky/complex that you are encouraged to use Google to find the answer.Can't I just Google someone Else's Answer?
Nope, you can't. For this Google has created what it calls "Deja Google", "A wormhole inspired time machine that searches the Internet as it existed before the game began.". Also to make sure no one else can spoil the fun of you use your super sleuth googleing skills by posting the answer in a tweet / or blog post google suggests you use agoogleaday.com instead of google.com which excludes real-time updates and other things that are likely to include spoilers as people post the answers to the puzzle online.
Your answers can be posted on agoogleaday.com. The correct answers are displayed the next day under the Question on agoogleaday.com. Also it lets you share the question on all the social media sites , you can even follow agoogleaday on facebook or twitter to get notified when a new questions is posted.
Why Should I bother?
This is an attempt by google to encourage people to use google in innovative and meaningful ways and to demonstrate the power of search. It will not be an understatement to say that google search's computational powers have hardly been put to use, through this google expects user to realize its full power.
So go ahead jump in have fun.
