A Google-a-Day Puzzle for Apr. 19

Geek Culture

Our good friends at Google run a daily puzzle challenge and asked us to help get them out to the geeky masses. 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:

You’re watching a man make a telephone call. He tells the operator, “Connect me to Klondike-5.” Where are you?

YESTERDAY’S ANSWER (mouseover to see):

Search [Indonesian town famous for soto banjar] and learn this is the town of Banjarmasin. Search [famous market Banjarmasin] and find that it is a floating marketplace where many boats float together to sell fruit, spices, fish and other foodstuffs. It’s impossible to walk over it because it’s all on water.
