CPL 2.0 - Google Universe

I love Google! Google search engine is very user-friendly; it would correct your spelling and help you by suggesting the keywords. It looks like it reads your mind! Having English as a second language and coming from the “Metric world”, it is so convenient to be able to check spelling quickly and convert feet and inches to centimetres. Being able to check currency rate through Google is very convenient too.

Google products that I use, mostly for years, include Gmail, which has been one of my main email accounts and I have always liked it more than any other. Picasa is great for storing pictures online, creating photo albums and sharing them only with people you want them to see (unlike Facebook). I use Google Maps a lot, watch videos on YouTube, sometimes I chat using Talk, I use Documents, etc. I also check News through Google.

I have installed Google Earth on my computer years ago, and I used it a lot at first, but ever since Google added Satellite view to their Maps and especially since Street View became available I hardly use it anymore.

I also installed Google Chrome and tried it out, but I don’t use it regularly.

What do you like about the Google product? What do you dislike? Would you recommend the product to friends and colleagues?

I cannot think about anything I dislike about Google products. In fact, I really love them and I would recommend them to everyone. Beside all other advantages, they are free, too.
