Quoted in U.S. News

I got quoted in U.S. News! It's in the story The World According To Google by David Lagesse in the May 10 issue. Here's the key passage:

Google has succeeded because it's quicker than riffling through Yellow Pages for a store's number, cheaper than an investigator for scoping a date, and closer than the library when crashing on a term paper. It even finds a sunny escape for a midwesterner tired of the cold. "I Googled 'home for rent' and 'January and February,' and up popped a description and photos of the place we're now staying," says Larry Bodine, a marketing consultant who temporarily fled his Illinois home for Tucson, Ariz. "I can't imagine living without Google."

I mention this for two reasons:

I find that many reporters read and Google blogs. For marketing purposes, they are an excellent way to put news story ideas in front of the media.

I've been in Chicago since March, but I can't imaging living without being in Tucson during winter.
