Every once in a while I get an email from Google letting me know that a photo that I took in 2017 of Clover in Burlington, MA, has been seen some awesome number of times — 1.5 million was the count today:

It turns out that this is because if you look up Clover in Burlington on Google Maps, it’s my photo that’s featured:

There are scores of photos attached to that Google Maps listing; I have no idea what makes my photo the one that’s deemed worthy of illustrating the location, but I’m happy to have it do so, as I’ve always had a good meal there, and I like the Clover concept.

I especially like the blog the company keeps that chronicles its mistakes.
