Google Seo Mythbusting

Watching the comments about Google's first mythbusting video reminds me of the comments around the final season of Game of Thrones. All this hype for this series and the first show did not live up to its expectations. To be fair, the Googlers who put this together are not film producers while HBO is.

Don't get me wrong - the first video was super entertaining and I am looking forward to watching more. But it really did not do any mythbusting.

Watch it:

Even Google's tweet about it didn't squash any myths:

Here are some of the comments about it:

Again, I am very excited to see the next video - this was the first one and it probably started off a bit soft on the mythbusting end. The back and forth and details they put into this first video were super entertaining and fun to watch. So looking forward to more!

This was a really good first effort and we really cannot judge Google engineers on the same level as HBO film directors. :)
