Google :)

Hello. How're u? I'm good but there are plenty to do since it's soon-to-be the ending of the semester. Time flies really fast during short semester. Amy Winehouse became the topic of my previous blog. I still think that her death is quite sad.

Ok. So, back to Google. Why Google? It's actually my favourite site of all. It falls under the category of online site. I think that it's a very good site for an online service provider website. Whenever I have any doubts or there's something that I want to find out more about, I always rely on Google. It has become a very important figure in my life. :) Google Search is a web search engine that has become the dominant search engine in the United States market with a market share of 65.6%. Google indexes billions of web pages so that users can search for the information they desire through the use of keywords and operators.  

Google Search

Google was founded in January 1996 by Larry Page and Sergey Brin who are often dubbed the 'Google Guys'. Google's mission statement was to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful.

The company offers online productivity software such as its Gmail email service and social networking tools including Orkut and the most recent, Google Buzz and Google +. Besides, Google's products extend to the desktop as well with applications such as web browse Google Chrome, The Picasa photo organization and editing software and the Google Talk instant messaging application.

Notably, Google also leads to the development of the Android mobile operating system that are used on a number of phones such as the Nexus One and Motorola Droid as well as Google Chrome OS which was released on June 15, 2011. Google also own sites such as YouTube, Blogger and Orkut. Now after knowing more about Google, don't you think that Google is a one hell of a software? It practically owns most of the inventions or software that other companies also have. With Google, information is just a click-away.

That's all for today.

Cheers!
