If you GOOGLE, It Will Come

Does anyone else feel that if you Google something, and it doesn't come up, if you GOOGLE IN ALL CAPS IT WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE?

Example:

"Hey I did a search for "Pete's Cafe , Watertown, MA" but nothing came up"
"Oh, Did you try "PETE'S CAFE, WATERTOWN, MA"?
"Ohhhhhh"

I'm telling you, GOOGLE vs Google is the way to go. 60% of the time it works EVERY TIME*




*(ok not really - but it makes me feel like I'm a Serious Googler)

I never try all caps - usually I'll just rearrange the words and maybe toss another one in there like, "Cafe, Watertown MA, Pete's" LOL.

We found that our email program at work flags as "may cause offense" dick and DICK but not Dick. I'm sure I was writing that someone was a total dick rather than an email about someone named Dick when I discovered this.
