Google Dance 2007 logo & party invite

Google Dance, if you don’t know, is humorously named after “Googledance” a colloquialistic term used by webmasters to describe how the Google search results used to sort of “dance around” for a few days during major PageRank or indexing updates. Google re-co-opted the term, if that’s the right word, and use “Google Dance” to refer to the annual party they throw for search engine marketing experts attending the Search Engine Strategies (”SES”) Conference every year.

Google facilities all sport colorful balls

here they are balloons, bobbing gently
in the breeze at Google Dance
