Each day’s puzzle will task your googling skills a little more, leading you to Google mastery. Each morning at 12:01 a.m. Eastern time you’ll see a new puzzle, and the previous day’s answer (in invisitext) posted here.

SPOILER WARNING:
We leave the comments on so people can work together to find the answer. As such, if you want to figure it out all by yourself, DON’T READ THE COMMENTS!
Also, with the knowledge that because others may publish their answers before you do, if you want to be able to search for information without accidentally seeing the answer somewhere, you can use the Google-a-Day site’s search tool, which will automatically filter out published answers, to give you a spoiler-free experience.
And now, without further ado, we give you…
TODAY’S PUZZLE:
What is the modern name of the city which was the battle site associated with the phrase, “Veni, vidi, vici”?
YESTERDAY’S ANSWER (mouseover to see):
Search [frontal lobe] to learn that it’s strongly linked to personality and decision-making for future activities. Search [temporal lobe] to find it’s involved primarily in memory and language functions. So the frontal lobe is where your plan for going to a movie originated and was planned out.
