A
Chinese acquaintance, a local shop keeper, came to the cafe this
morning and handed me a label from a consignment of handbags he had
imported from China, and asked me to try to find out for him whether
this was a genuine designer label or a fake or what. It's a square of
opaque plastic with very classy black and white design, simple but
elegant, with just the word GG .... ing below a few different sized
alphabet letter G. He doesn't know anything about using computers. Not
that I know much but I said I would look it up, googling or wiki-ing.
I was shown a couple of pages but nothing to do with this GG...ing being a name, a trade mark, a shop name or any kind of label, definitely nothing to do with a handbag. The nearest with any connection with the GG .... ing is a girl's Blog page where she, Isabel, says something about her gg ... ing (blg...gging).
I thought one is supposed to be able to find out anything with Google or Wikipedia! Recently a new friend played me a compliment saying that I wrote some nice Blogs. I asked how did he know as I hardly know him myself, and have definitely not given him my web site page or Multiply link. He said he had googled me by just putting in my name. Now I didn't even know that, that putting in just Moimoii in Google search gets him directly to all my Blogs, photos, etc.
So how come I couldn't find the name and details of a designer (supposedly) label?
