The Incredible Inedible – Google

A discussion in class about how one individual attempted to refrain from using Google for an entire day.  I did not want to test myself – to see if I could stay away from Google.  Instead, I wanted to take notice of how many different ways could I use Google in the day.  I didn’t want to keep a running tally – but in a way keep a tab the way that a bartender would at the local watering hole – potentially missing one or two – eh or a few.  I have to say – Google comes in pretty handy.  To start things off  -Google is not my homepage, it might as well be… I was looking for a phone number to a restaurant and the first website I typed into the browser was www.google.com without any hesitation.  I typed in some information – the name, the town, the city – and what do you know – up pops the restaurant I was looking for with the phone number displayed on the google page.  At work – if I need to do a little research on a company or individual – always start off with Google.  My IT department even uses Google – I called the IT department and explained the troubles I was having with my computer – The individual on the other end said he was going to Google the problem – that’s when it hit me like a ton of bricks.  Google is by far the greatest thing since sliced bread – what other website does your job for you?
