Justin Bieber fans found themselves wondering where their hero was today at today’s Chirp conference.
Many Bieber fans searching “Justin Twitter” accidentally stumbled onto the Chirp conference Justin.tv stream today. Wondering where Bieber was, they spammed the video’s chat log with questions about their idol.
This is yet another reason why people need to remember that Google results are fluid.
The incident, oddly reminiscent of the ReadWriteWeb Facebook Login debacle of a few months back, annoyed experienced users of Justin.tv. “This is not a Justin Beiber (sic) conference. Go on Twitter itself and look for JB tweets, you’ll get more responses there than here,” said an annoyed user.
Meanwhile, frustrated Bieber fans vented in the video’s chat logs “i have bieber fever…were (sic) is he???” Unfortunately for these users, Google’s search results change over time, and today’s top result for their favorite search is about Chirp.
For experienced internet users, this sort of ignorance is frustrating. Discussion about Twitter’s new API, which included a host of major bloggers (Robert Scoble for one), screeched to a halt as confused Bieber fans complained about the lack of appearances by the “Baby” singer.
Unfortunately, there’s not much power users can do, short of starting an education campaign. In many ways, the internet is geared towards its most inexperienced users. And as long as Google’s searches remain dynamic (which they really have to), we’re going to see incidents like this one.















Poor Bieber fans. Must be awful.
HAHAHAHAHAHAH
Wow man. Just wow.
I'm in the Chat its very very annoying.
They just don't listen when we try and explain too
ah gee….my fans miss me :)
The best part about this article? The quick & dirty photoshop for the main image. That's classic.
*was the annoyed user*
What I learned over time with the Justin.TV chatrooms: Never come in expecting an intellectual discussion… granted, That also applies to the rest of the internet too.
Another view, if Justin.TV didn't default to having Post to Twitter on……
(On page Chat Log -> Cog -> Uncheck Post to Twitter)
Depending on Bieber's popularity next year, maybe Justin.tv should use this concept to their advantage and book him for the conference. ;)
