Awesome New Internet Searches That Ought to be Invented Posthaste
By cari || January 30, 20081) This isn’t a search so much as a shorthand convenience. Let’s say you have a crush on someone whom you can’t date for one reason or another. You should be able to go on Craigslist and post something in the personals ads like, “I am looking for someone just like _______________ (enter crush’s name here)” and through the magic of the Internet, someone just like him will respond. This might involve some kind of brain scanner….
2) If you have a song running through your head and you don’t remember any lyrics, you should be able to hum what you know into a Google Microphone and it will find possible song contenders based on your humming. It should allow for tone deafness and off-key warblers, sort of like a golf handicap.
3) If you are thinking about making a movie and you are concerned that you are copying someone else’s style/camera angle there should be a way to search a cinema database for previous work. For example, I am thinking about this certain effect with the camera but it would suck if it’s been done before. I won’t describe it in greater detail here because I know too many filmmakers and they are just waiting to pilfer from me.
4) You should be able to Google tastes and smells. I cannot even begin to imagine how this would be possible.
