A day without GOOGLE..



GOOGLE.. The most popular word among the techies on the EARTH..

It is not exaggeration to say that GOOGLE is like secondary mind to most of the Software professionals :)

One engineering guy is preparing for an interview. He called up many friends who already got through some interviews and few guys who are actually working etc., He got the information but at the end of the day that information turned out to be a partial one. Then he googled for the similar information and flooded with lot of information like sample papers, previous papers what not almost everything. There are many such guys in the WORLD..

A group of techies planned spend the year end at one of the beautiful places in INDIA.. They had discussion to decide upon a place to visit. Many names, but less information. They asked Google about their top 5 places and had a virtual tour of all those places. They got to know every bit of the places before they visited them in real.

One fine day, A guy was scratching his head for more than 4 hours to solve a bug in "his" code. The error says some blah blah blah.... He checked fellow programmers, seniors, but no luck. One guy suggested Googling with error phrase as search statement. He found many pages where people had discussions regarding the same problem and he could find one solution out of those discussion.

It has details of world Movies, images, languages, maps, contacts, mail, social networking what not everything simply everything. It is a Parallel WORLD altogether. Google indexes 1 trillion (1,000,000,000,000) unique URLs on the web. Ref: http://googleblog.blogspot.com

In so many ways people are associated to Google since its inception in 1995. It became a kind of addiction to many. Life is going like smoothly and suddenly one day GOOGLE DISAPPEARED. People went panic. They got addicted to it in such a way that they simply forgot about other search engines... A black page is loading while typing google.com in the address bar of the browser symbolizing 'A BLACK HOLE'.
What a dream yaar... :) I was just shocked and woke up to realize that it was a DREAM... :P

One can not imagine a day with out Google. It has become part of life. I google at least 6 hours in a day!

Keep browsing.. Keep Googling.. :)
