I was truly amazed earlier today. I was showing someone at work image searching on GOOGLE And simply because I like the area i put in the Google search box       Ambleside pierhead      and to my astonishment probably 40 out of the first 50-60 images brought up by the search belonged to POE (a lot of which were mine it has to be said but then I do have a considerable amount on POE of Ambleside). Now that is what I call good pulling power and it was by doing exactly that a couple of years ago I fell upon POE, and have never looked back 

I would be interested to know if anyone has a few minutes to put the same heading into Google to see they turn up the same amazing result. I have done it several times on different computers and got the same result. 

Long may POE reign.......

I've done this as well Dave by searching for places I've been and the POE link to the pctures has come up top of the list on Google. I've just done it with Ambleside Pier, and the top link takes me to your photo of yellow tulips, the second link in the list to your single tulip.

By the way, I've just altered my seach engine to Yahoo, same result Smile

Must admit I was a bit speechless when I did this and turned up my photos some time ago. POE rules Smile

Thanks for trying that Ruth I think is an amazing result for POE. I aslo tried Ambleside pier but if you had put        Ambleside pierhead       the result is even greater. I think it a fantastic result for POE (and little old me!!)

Great result yes, but it may well be due to the fact that your PC remembers your browsing.

The test would be to empty your internet cache and then type in the same search.

I hope you are right, but I suspect you may get a different result.
