Is Google GOD??

pairbrother · 12-17-2005, 03:02 PM

Since 9/11 the world has felt increasingly fragmented. Reading the papers, one senses that many Americans are emotionally withdrawing from the world and that the world is drifting away from America. The powerful sense of integration that the go-go-globalizing 1990's created, the sense that the world was shrinking from a size medium to a size small, feels over now.

The reality, though, is quite different. While you were sleeping after 9/11, not only has the process of technological integration continued, it has actually intensified -- and this will have profound implications. I recently went out to Silicon Valley to visit the offices of Google, the world's most popular search engine. It is a mind-bending experience. You can actually sit in front of a monitor and watch a sample of everything that everyone in the world is searching for. (Hint: sex, God, jobs and, oh my word, professional wrestling usually top the lists.)

In the past three years, Google has gone from processing 100 million searches per day to over 200 million searches per day. And get this: only one-third come from inside the U.S. The rest are in 88 other languages. "The rate of the adoption of the Internet in all its forms is increasing, not decreasing," says Eric Schmidt, Google's C.E.O. "The fact that many [Internet companies] are in a terrible state does not correlate with users not using their products."

Cool article, I've been to the Googleplex and seen the screen where they have a big Earth rotating and glowing brighter in certain parts depending on search usage density, VERY cool place.

Thanks for posting. However, I wouldn't call Google "God"...

I think Google is the only company with the technology and resources to outrun microsoft in Research and Development, not only because they are way way ahead of MSN as far as search engines goes, but aplications like Google Earth, and some others are taking google to be the next big thing..

iWonder · 12-27-2005, 10:16 AM

It sure is , but there are many companies and users of google services who are not that happy with google. but on the other hand not everyone likes god too

Aky · 12-27-2005, 02:58 PM

you're right google could be the next big thing. but i think there are other softwares like google earth and they're much better, but they're just hiding somewhere in the net.

Well thats what i think.

Google is better than any search engine I've ever come across. I set it has my home page at College and at Home

.

Just think of what they created. Email's Adsense, you name it they've proablly made.

Good luck to them!
