Google - Internet Super Power
Monday, September 28, 2009 by Jordan2004
nsIt was quite interesting to learn in today’s lecture how Google has become a “Corporate Power”. Google has grown immensely since its birth in 1996 as a research project. To this date, Google has become the default search engine, image finder, email client, map locator and news source for some people. Think….. How many times have you heard someone say to you “I’ll Google it”? I have yet to hear someone say “I’ll Yahoo! it”.
I believe that Google’s image will grow bigger and bigger as the years go on due to its dominance in the internet world. Even Apple’s iPod Touch is helping to spread Google’s image and services to become the internet superpower is it currently known as. The Apple iPod touch comes with Google Maps and Youtube applications. Both applications are owned and operated by Google. In addition, the Google mobile search page was the default homepage when I first logged onto the internet from my iPod Touch.
It seems that our internet worlds are run by Google. It now seems that there is even a Google Phone, which is said to rival the iPhone, oddly enough. Who knows what Google may attempt to do next. They might even branch into becoming an internet service provider or even launch their own operating system to challenge Microsoft’s Windows operating systems and Apple’s MAC operating systems. I guess we will have to wait and see what Google’s future holds.
