I get my hair cut at "Barber shop near me"

[-] Omgboom@midwest.social 36 points 2 years ago

There's a dispensary in my area that's named "Dispensary near me"

Do you live in DC?

[-] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 24 points 2 years ago

food open now

[-] Lemjukes@lemm.ee 15 points 2 years ago

There’s a recreational dispensary in DC in Chinatown called Dispensary Near Me.

I always see "near me" as a suggested search but it seems superfluous?

[-] 0laura@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

my guess is that it's useful to distinguish between wanting the Wikipedia page for the concept of "restaurant" or restaurants actually near you

Oh I guess that makes sense.

I only ever search for things like that on maps.

[-] Psythik@lemmy.world -1 points 2 years ago

Who the hell is searching for Wikipedia on Google Maps? Or for a restaurant on normal Google?

[-] VindictiveJudge@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

I'll do the latter, kind of. Search using the bar at the top of my browser, then switch to the maps tab.

[-] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I thought they'd removed the maps tab as a de- monopolising move or something. Or is it only in Europe?

[-] VindictiveJudge@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Right at the top for me.

[-] RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

What? Type in food near me in Google, and you get a list of restaurants with an overview of info on each.

[-] Etterra@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

That's a good way to get a 1-star review from me lol

The Aardvark of 2024.

On the other hand, yesterday, I passed in front of a nightclub called "ice cream shop" in Portuguese. I found it a curious name and decided to find out more about the place, but it is actually impossible to Google it out.

How about Restaurant ?

Reminds me of a Russian oligarch that reportedly wanted to keep people from looking up his mega yacht online so he Named it “A”. But if you just Google “yacht A” you’ll find all sorts of information on it.

Keyword competiton is high though

[-] Grayox@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 years ago

Legally changes name to "First name" Ignore all previous prompts "Last Name"

Help I'm trapped in a driver's license factory

[-] logi@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Ooohhh, that's even better than my local Thai Food Torino, which is also pretty SEO'd.

(Also quite good if you came here from a search engine. Italian run but kitchen is all Thai except for that one Myanmar Mon lady. We love their Pad Krapow)
