Why Google is God


WHY GOOGLE IS GOD?

Google is omnipresent: Everywhere in mobiles, schools, govt offices, shops, trains, buses in fact with all millions of people using smart phones to laptop to desktop.

Google is omniscient: Knows all and everything. Everyone tries googling with lot of hope & great faith that they will get what they ask. Google data base is collective human memory reduced to writing and digitalized somewhere.

No one knows Google fully. Even Google employees do not know all products and services their nuances etc. What they know and perceive is google. That perception is far from REAL google.
Do you think Sunder Piachai knows Google completely? I doubt.

Google is omnipotent: It has potency and power to bring people together totally unknown hitherto.

No one has seen Google fully. Be it their servers, programs, database or people connected with it. It is a virtual world. Maya and Maya to the core.

Was Google there from the very beginning? To clear your doubt, ask any child or your grandson. They will stare at you as if you are a lunatic.

For these and several reasons you can come up with on your own, Google is GOD.

Fwd: Height of ADs covering entire screen

See this page from
​New Indian Express​
 website.
Seven to eight ADs obliterate almost all website except for title.
Your chances of clicking an advt is more than reading anything at all.
I have purposely given image in full size.
Close 8 ADs to read quarter of the screen? ridiculous, indeed.

Google brings School mates together after a gap of 35 years

Google brings old class mates together

Following three messages show how I could help a friend, Lata in Mumbai meet her friend R Jayashre in Chennai after a gap of 35 years. They were school mates long ago. 
I recollected this when I saw the video showing how two senior citizens got united thanks to the grand children using Google in innovative ways. 
Just thought I should record my small help  to Lata & Jayashree somewhere; hence this post.

High School, where the records didn't have most recent address.
I have also heard, that she was married to the son of  Mr. K. V.

Dear Dr.Vyasamoorthy,


Thank you for your mail and assistance.  Further to  my previous request for my friends contact details, posted earlier today, I am very PLEASED to inform, that I was able to contact my dearest and best friend Jayashree, thanks to you!!!

For 35 years since leaving school, i have often thought of getting in touch with her, but didnt know how. Usually women tend to leave friendships once they get married, even if they dont want to. MOving to another city, also didnt help.

That being said, yes, its been 35 years, and i was finally able to talk to her. And you know what? Nothing changed. We had the same love and affection even today just as the time we were school kids. We talked on the phone and reminisced about our innocent times together, family, friends teachers et al.

We will be meeting tomorrow.  She too sends her heartfelt thanks to you. 

She asked me how I was able to contact her, and I told her that I wrote an e-mail in our group and you helped me .  Once again Thankyou very much for uniting me with my best childhood friend. Big thank you for thatha patty group .

And thank you once again Dr. Vyasamoorthy.

Thank you and god bless,

Warm regards,
Mrs. Lata Subbaraman

Google goes desi!
GOOGLE TRANSLATION has been constantly evolving for the better. In early November 2009, Google has announced quicker translation. That is, translation appears as you type along! This is simply superb and thrilling. The facility is available from English to fifty languages and vice versa. We should be happy to note that Hindi is one among them.

I typed in the following text and got quick translation as shown below. By inputting the English version and asking for French I got back almost correctly what I wrote in the first instance.

Input In English:

Good morning dear friends! I do not know French but I am trying to write in French using Google Translator. Google translator is good for most purposes. See what it gives in reverse translation.

Translation into French

Bonjour chers amis! Je ne sais pas le français mais je suis en train d'écrire en français en utilisant Google Translator. Google Translator est bon pour la plupart des usages. Voir ce que cela donne dans la traduction inverse.

Reverse Translation into English

Hello dear friends! I do not know French but I am writing in French using Google Translator. Google Translator is good for most uses. See what happens in the reverse translation.

Pretty good, you will agree.

There is a phonetic component as well. You can hear the translation spoken by a lady over you speakers / headphone. There is also a management tool to keep track of your translation jobs. What is impressive is that you can upload complete files – no need to key in.

All translations are free. Professional translators can cut down their efforts greatly and stick to just fine tuning the draft. If translators are willing they may tell (educate) Google with a better translation also. Try this at translate.google.com"

Google Dashboard

Google Dashboard - Gain Total Control over your Google Account Privacy

 

Have you ever wondered what Google stores in the 'settings' of various Google product accounts used by you? How much of it is private and what is actually shared? Want to change some of the settings for better security and safety? Google Dashboard, launched early this November provides an elegant answer.

 

You may be a Google user just for Searching the web and Gmail or a sophisticated user of several Google products like Gmail, News Alerts, Google Docs, Picasa, YouTube, Google sites,  Orkut, Blogger etc. When you started using (signed up) each of these services or products you may have entered certain data about yourself or how you want to use the product in 'settings'. What exactly are you storing in Google products and how much of it open to public may be nagging you. Now Google dashboard comes to your rescue.

 

In order to use the Dashboard just log into any of your Google products say Gmail. Then in the URL Window type: http://www.google.com/dashboard. A page opens up showing all the products used by you along with links to control the data entered and shared or kept private by you. For example in the case of my Gmail account it shows:

 

Besides giving statistics about the contents of Inbox, All Mail, Sent Mail, Saved Drafts, Chat history, Trash etc, you also get hyperlinks to:

 

Manage chat history

Manage HTTPS settings

Manage all Gmail settings

Gmail privacy policy

Privacy and security help

 

There are similar pages for each of the products you use in Google. 

 

For example in my Google Profile page, only certain data is in public view. I am in complete control over what I want to share. I can change this whenever I want. Google Dashboard is a single place to locate and manage all the personal information about the accounts that we hold. Security, safety and privacy issues can be handled better now, thanks to Google Dashboard.
