Googlification

Friday, September 4th, 2015

Having not wanted it because I thought it would be rubbish I have been convinced by an overwhelming number of women (two) that it would be a good idea to have the inside of our Hove store Googlified. Googlification is when a very nice chap takes loads of photos of the store, stitches them together with magical thread and creates our own little street view but inside our shop. You can see why I thought it would be rubbish because it sounds like embarrassingly large pants. And it might well have been but Mike the photographer has done a very nice job and left me rather pleasantly surprised. Of course I have had to suffer a certain amount of I told you so, eat a little humble pie and write ‘I am not always entirely correct’ one hundred times. But that’s okay because in this case I admit I was wrong. Googlification is ace. Thank you Mister Google, you are not the world eating, maniacal despot I thought you were. With a sprinkle of Goggle pixie dust you can now swoosh and swoop from one end of Rume to the other, you can zoom in and out and even observe a large bald man with a fuzzy face drinking a cup of tea. Forever. Isn’t technology marvellous. Anyway here it is below, dive in and be transported, it’s just like being here, only not.
