In Search of.....

After watching the "filter bubble" video, I have begun to wonder what I'm not seeing that I'd should, or that I need to. While redoing my "Shakespeare" search, I started to think... "Is this what everyone else is seeing?" So I used another, public, computer with Google. Then I used the same public computer with the Dogpile search engine. My results were very different. At home, my computer only showed me the author's biographical information, and quotes or plays that he had written. At the public computer, I was hit with fishing equipment, conspiarcy theories, and a few legitimate sources that were what I had seen before. The two were nothing alike.
