question of the day: Google is guessing at the sexual orientation of celebs — is this weird?

Fri, Sep 30, 2011

Google isn’t revealing any secrets, it’s just summarizing the conversation about a celebrity. But why suddenly make a special point of summarizing so succinctly about this particular aspect of a person’s life?
