    First Ever Wedding Proposal via Search Engine

    I just wanted to let all you know, that I am now engaged to be married to my beautiful girlfriend, Yisha.

    Why am I posting this here, at a search blog? Well, because of the way I did it.

    I proposed via Ask Jeeves. I brought Yisha to my office, ask her to search on her name. While she was doing that I kneeled behind her with the ring and flowers. She typed in her name into Ask Jeeves, full name, and up came a special Smart Answer (thanks to Jim Lanzone and team) with the proposal.

    I don't have much time to explain it, so go to the idea page for more information.



    Also try rustybrick engagement for some other smart searches.

    Thanks again to Jim Lanzone, Scott Grieder, Steve Orr, Daniel Read, and the whole Ask Jeeves team!

      Don't you just love it when technology and romance come together?
      'There is a greater darkness than the one we fight. It is the darkness of the soul that has lost its way. The war we fight is not against powers and principalities, it is against chaos and despair. Greater than the death of flesh is the death of hope, the death of dreams. Against this peril we can never surrender. The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.'"
      G'Kar - from Babylon 5 episode "Z'ha'dum"

            Very good idea methinks

            How could she say no to a man with such power over search engines? If she refused, he could have them return "Yisha is a slut" in the future

                      Good thing there wasn't a technical issue and Pekka's sites didn't pop up during the proposal. The kneeling down may have been misinterpreted.
