Why we LOVE Google!From Chrome to Google Analytics - how can you not love how much easier surfing and following your surfers has become thanks to Google.
Not to mention Google Docs or Drive! or Gmail!
So how does Google help you? And why should you love it to?
1. Google Search has a better AI algorithm than Yahoo and MSN, which serves up better results for you while you are looking for something online. If you want to quickly find something nearby, use the Local Search option. And then there are the maps - so helpful and easy to use (and you can save them for use later!)
2. Google Chrome
- it is fast
- it does one thing (browse the web), and does it well
- it's updated regularly
3. Google Docs (Drive) let's you easily share (and set permissions), work collaboratively and find work at home or at the office. You can quickly save documents as pdfs!
4. Gmail
Not only let's you have space to send and receive large files. It also has a great address book! If you are an Android user you can share this address book which makes keeping things current so much more efficient at your desk and on your phone. Gmail tends to receive less spam, has built in chat, is secure and FREE!
5. Google Analytics
Need to know who is visiting your site, which pages, when and if there are errors? Use Google Analytics. From it's easy to personalize dashboard, to quick reports (and the ability to email them as pdfs) to great resources on how to increase visitors, Google Analytics is a one stop shop for website analytics.
And what can be next?
Improved Android, tablets, laptops, Google TV, social game network?
