Twas the Night Before Chrismas - with a Web Search Twist

Here's my (pitiful) twist on the classic Clement Clarke Moore poem, "Twas the Night Before Christmas", with search engines, search engine optimization, and general geekery. Happy Holidays!

"Twas the night before Christmas,

Shopping search engines were incurring much debt.

The Deep Web was searched, the Google Cheat Sheet found favor,

And the Free Movie Downloads was a tremendous time-saver.

The scavenger hunts, Web glossary, and forums were fun,

and the Reference Desk helped much homework get done.

100 Search Engines were profiled this fall,

while Ten Ways to Find People was helpful to (most) all.

Web Search 101, a free search class, was good,

while Ten Ways to Find News took me under the (Web) hood.

Reverse lookup, Top Searches, and Yahoo Cheat Sheet were cool,

What is a Browser? I think Firefox rules.

More rapid than eagles search engines found fame,

Wendy of Web Search whistled, and shouted, and called them by name:

"Now, Droogle! now, Blinkx! now, AOL and Pretrieve!

On, Clusty! on Kartoo! on Oodle and Indeed!

She sprang to her 'puter, to her brain gave caffeine,

And wrote about search engines, better search ranks, and everything in between.

"It's been a great year at Web Search, Wendy sighed with delight,

"Happy Holidays to all, and to all a good-night!"
