I LOVE Google….
They continue to amaze me with their methods of delivering information, and how easy they make my life. They have managed to become a portal of sorts, like Yahoo and MSN have been for a long time, without changing their simple interface.
Google will do SOOOO many things for you that most people aren’t aware of.
- Looking for pizza in your area? Just type in PIZZA followed by your zip code
- Looking for the current price of a stock? Just type in the stock symbol
- Have a tracking number for a package that you’d like to track? Just type in the tracking number and Google will provide a link to the correct shipper’s tracking site
- Looking for the definition of ‘carpe diem’? Just type ‘define carpe diem’
- Looking for the address of a business or individual? Just type their name followed by a city and state, and it’ll provide you the information it has.
- Want to do a quick calculation, but don’t feel like loading your calculator? Just type the calculation in and Google will give you the answer.
This doesn’t even BEGIN to cover the other things they provide. Have you tried any of these services yet?
I love it when a company makes something simple for me, and Google continues to do just that...
