A few years ago Rob Smart was giving an Emerging Technology pitch to a packed out audience. He was explaining how AJAX worked and using the Google search suggestion as his example.
He started to type “Emerging Technology” as the search term, but someone asked a question just as he’d got to typing “Emerg”. He stopped to answer the question and on the 20ft screen behind him Google whirred away and came back with “Are you looking for Emergency Contraception?” He had no idea why everyone was in tears.
