Topeka is Google? Google Changes Name to Topeka Kansas

Why does Google say Topeka? What does Topeka mean? What is Topeka? Where is Topeka? So many questions… and we have the answers. The quiet town of Topeka Kansas did something no one thought of before. They changed their name, temporarily, to “Google.” So anyone hailing from that town had an address of “Google, Kansas” for that short period of time. It was a great marketing trick to get that said little town of Topeka Kansas on the map, and not just Google Maps. It seems that their strategy is really paying off. The search giant, Google Inc. has changed their name to Topeka. Google is no longer Google. Googling someone is no longer an acceptable phrase. From now on, when you go online to search, you are Topeking. You go to Topeka. Here are some suggested ways of adapting and using this new language. Proper use of Topeka – “Before our blind date, I did a Topeka search on him.” Acceptable use of Topeka – “Before our blind date, I Topeka’ed him.” Questionable use of Topeka – “Before our blind date, I Topeka’d his ass.” Incorrect use of Topeka – “Before our blind date, I topeka’ed him with Alta Vista.” Of course, as cool as this all seems. It’s just an April Fools Day prank from Google Topeka. Happy April Fools Day! You can find more cool April Fools jokes online! Google Changes Name to Topeka Kansas Topeka is Google?
