How would you rewrite the old joke?

Translating the joke An SEO walks into a bar…

#owlynotes gone wild

This week I was rereading David Amerland's book Google Semantic Search (specifically the part Entity Extraction) and this reminded me of the shift web and search are slowly but steadily going through. To mention just a few facets:

✓ SEO is now a holistic approach to a web presence
✓ A Google + profile is a major identity hub 
✓ In-depth, semantic rich, well researched writing wins
✓ Semantic technologies grow more sophisticated

And all that works for universal human values. Faking things does not work, “establishing” digital presence is meaningless if it’s not a reflection of what you believe in. 

And now the joke.

Mocking the extensive (unnatural) use of synonyms and keyword repetition, here is how the original joke looked like in the days of the Boolean search (when search was all about keywords, frequencies, co-occurrence):

An SEO walks into a bar, club, restaurant, pub, disco, public house, fun place...

I think it needs to be rewritten now, as to mock the idea of trying to fake things until you make it. 

I know it’s not finished yet, so ping Omi Sido, Tihomir Petrov, Dido Grigorov, Dimo Belov all other good people :) for help. The rdf part is also not the greatest one. :)

Have a wonderful Friday.

p.s. Nice haircut, owly :)
