B.G. | Before Google

I came across a really interesting term; B.G. which stands for Before Google, pointing at the era before Google emerged to this world and changed the whole internet experience. I was born in the year 17 B.G., the first time I used a computer was 5 B.G. and first time I used the internet was year zero!

I wonder how life used to be before Google, I can’t imagine the internet without Google I’m using it to inquire about anything, Google succeeded to replace traditional knowledge tools that we have and became the trusted source for any piece of information.

    My friend,
    Google is the best, Did you try their analytics tool? It is awsome(data mining explained)..Anyway I don’t know I you have ever seen the MSNBC report about google..You should see the enviroment that they work in..They invented a CCO position..it stands for chief culture officer(I am intersted in research in this area).
    My jaws dropped when I saw the report; no wonder they will rule the internet!!

    I came across a different type of report that I must say is not inviting, they say Google is in the process of gathering almost everything about their users that one day, iding a person anywhere around the globe becomes part of a huge database interface, that Google owns (and thus USA)… that sounded to me a bit of a stretch, especailly that this means less privacy for Europe and USA and a lot more freedom to third world, since third worlders still dont trust the computer on their very basic tasks… horraaaayyyy i say!
    a lot of europeans are already showing their contempt towards google being the market swallower with less-than-impressive toolkit… maybe they are right!
    by the way, i saw the other report, and gotta say those people are HYPNOTIZED! something is definitely wrong!

    Google already has your search history, what I heard is that they will keep 2 years record only and get rid of what is older.
