Addicted to Google

 

"As long as Google is there, i can do anything, that is above the earth and below the sky"

I was looking back and thinking about how i react to things which i face 'em.  It all started after i had said the famous saying of mine "As long as Google is there, i can do anything, that is above the earth and below the sky" to bharathi on Friday afternoon.  I was not having any work, since the client had not replied and also she hadn't come to office yet.  And i was lazing around, why i said that.  and a small questionnaire and a little travel to past revealed something.  I am dependent on Google for a lot of things, it is like i am addicted to Google.

The email u give to others: Gmail

when you want to know something: Google.com

you blog at: blogger

your pictures are stored online in: Picassa

Do you have a personal web page: Google pages

You have your official documents and presentations in :Google Docs

the social networking site you frequent: Orkut

which desktop search do you use: Google Desktop

see i have answered everything with something related to Google.  and the highlight of the whole thing which got me thinking was when i was in Bangalore. We needed the std code of Bangalore so that we can make a call, i fired up Google search in firefox and got the std code.  Now this seems to much, i could have asked the person who was sitting next to me, he is a bangalorean, i could have searched my uncle's phone  number in my phone address book(he lives in bangalore).  But why did i search Google? 

when i had to setup a AMP server for the forums i could have called Mr.Suresh. He knows it.  instead i used Google again. 

and the latest in this list was the above mentioned episode with Bharathi, when she asked me if i knew how to setup a svn server.  the statement gives away how much i am dependent on GOOGLE.

But the reality is as i had said.....

"As long as Google is there, i can do anything, that is above the earth and below the sky"
