Editor: If you searched for "Oregon wine festival" in advance of our 2013 event you may have seen some serious problems in Google's results. We somehow got mixed up with some rehab services for teens with drinking problems. This was a disaster for us, since these results were at the top of the search results and associated our event with a very negative connotation that required many desperate explanations to our supporters and probably kept many visitors from attending. And there was no way to remove Google search results - learn more. Our promoter pointed us to this page which strongly suggests that we were not the only victim of Google's algorithm in this respect - read about even bigger problems created for individuals and businesses due to errors and inappropriate associations created by the search engine. Many reputations have been destroyed by these kinds of errors and Google is never held to account. Fortunately for us, the problem went away a week before we launched, but we would probably have seen an even bigger turnout had we not had to contend with this problem. Thanks to all who helped us overcome this PR disaster.
