Are the Google changes stressing you out?!

Before we get too stressed out...
Sometimes the best answer to what the future holds is to look at the past……Or Star Trek. And to keep it simple!

What we can learn from my GrandfatherIt is about being found… It’s about having the answers, it’s about knowing the customers, it’s about connecting

What was unique about Steve Jobs
He understood human behavior

It is about finding ways to connect
“From the beginning, Starbucks set out to be a different kind of company. One that not only celebrated coffee and the rich tradition, but that also brought a feeling of connection.”- Starbucks
Customers appreciate the effort to get a name right.
@kate_coley: The woman working at Starbucks was getting my
name and actually asked if it is Cate or Kate. I love you,
Starbucks lady. You make an effort.
@TerrysTwoCents – I absolutely LOVE it. My local Starbucks
doesn’t do it anymore because they have a printer. I miss it.
@BaronSquirrel – As a partner, it helps me connect. It’s more
personal than just calling ut the drink name. Also gets right
drink to right person.

Have you ever spoken in key words?
Next time you are in a store try talking only with keywords, and see if you get your questions answered
“Hole and Wall and Repair?”
So why should talking to a computer be any different?
Star Trek again predicts the future.

“Google’s mission is to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful.”
We see Google mission as, helping its customers locate and connect with the services and information they require in order to answer their question or solve their need.
"Even if you do brain-dead stupid things and shoot yourself in the foot, but have good content, we still want to return it," says Matt Cutts. In fact, Cutts says that Google tries to make it so that sites "don't have to do SEO."
First and foremost is content, and
there's no bonus for having good SEO.
So what is Google really looking to do?
