Think Like Google:2

Google does things differently. It is famous for its innovation. The complete list of Google product is available at http://www.google.com/intl/en/options/

Some of the products redefined the products and brought revolution. Some of them are

1) Google Search Engine: When anybody talks about Google, we understand it as the Google search Engine. Google is not the first to provide search Engine. Yahoo and MSN has search Engine prior to Google. Google redefined search criteria and now most people use Google as search Engine and I use Google as a synonym of search Engine.


2) Gmail: Two years ago, I did not have a personal hard disk. So I need to keep my important documents in the internet. I need to delete my mails regularly to keep the mail box limit in size. I have multiple mail accounts in order to keep all my documents. Gmail redefined the web mail and provided 1 GB for mail where as others were offering around five MB mail box. Others followed the suite. On the top of it Gmail is free from the flashy ads, it is more readable. It is based on AJAX and faster than other mails. Gmail does not provide some of the features provided by rivals. However it is responsible for the revolution and better user experience for web mail.


3) Orkut: I have lost contacts with most of college friends after I completed my engineering. I have contacted more friends in last year than past 9 years. The credit goes to orkut. Orkut affiliated by Google is the largest social networking site. Communities and scraping is common among people. Adding photo and videos makes it more powerful. What I like most about Orkut is centralized place where I can update my details and friends can get it by looking at my profile. No need to inform anybody about it.

4) Google Toolbar: Bookmark is essential for people who surf frequently. I prefer my bookmark to be at my machine and at internet, so that I can download at another computer and use it at new place. Google Toolbar provides the functionality (other compotators such as yahoo tool bar provides the same functionality.) It gives other functionality such as spell check smart search, add buttons and share your web. It also provides features such pop up blocker.

5) YouTube: You Tube changed the concept of video sharing in globe. Now we can share it and access anywhere. It is not a product developed by Google, however it enhanced the capabilities of products by Google.
