Google

I can’t figure out why everyone isn’t giving Google 5 stars. Not a single day goes by that I don’t use Google multiple times. Need to know a fact real quick: GOOGLE! Can’t figure out who an actor is in a movie I’m watching and it’s driving me absolutely nuts: GOOGLE! Need to convert something from the stupid metric system into inches: GOOGLE!
It’s really cool that stupid, random things we want to know that bother us no longer have to bother us. We don’t have to get up and go find the dictionary… just reach for the phone. We don’t have to wait until the library opens the next day to go do research… just reach for the phone. Sometimes I wonder how I ever made it as a teenager in the 80s. LOL
GOOGLE IS AWESOME!!!

Whether you’re looking up something useful or something completely useless… Google is a great tool to utilize… It is even more useful now that almost everyone now carries a computer in the palm of their hand…
As long as Google is around I’ll always have a use for it.

These guys are everywhere!
Do you remember the days where you had to actually go to a physical location, which actually had physical books, to actually put in physical work in order for you to learn about something completely new?
Here comes a simple website with a complex underbelly! You normally see a picture or video up top, which is linked to some sort of fun fact of the day, and below it is a search tool bar. You can type in ANYTHING and get thousands of results on your query in less than a second.
That reminds me of a joke that I read about Google:
Q: Is Google male or female? A: Female, because it doesn’t let you finish a sentence before making a suggestion.
That truly had nothing to do with nothing. Just wanted to share a stereotypical, sexist joke that you can find at nausea on Google.
Is this search engine a good thing or a bad thing? That depends on you. Google is «The Force.» If you learn towards the dark side, you will be Darth Vader in no time. Google is powerful enough to make you a Jedi Master of your desire.
Keep in mind that school kids are putting answers to exams, homework, etc. on Google, so they are helping make minds lazier! Google is just too convenient at times!
Google is a part of everything you do now. They have infiltrated your phone… smart phones… consequently your home… smart appliances… and transportation… smart cars (they are driving themselves!).
You have to love Google. Why do you have to love Google? Google it and let me know what it says.

Google — die virtuelle Enzyklopädie.
Heute wird alles gegoogelt und das ist auch gut so.
Zuviel googeln macht aber auch krank.
Wir kennen das Phänomen: man gibt paar Beschwerden ein und ist eigentlich nach Google totkrank und kann schon sein Testament machen ;-)
Auf der anderen Seite mein Appell an alle Patienten, welche nur an schlechte, dumme, faule oder einfach nur desinteressierte Ärzte geraten — sie können hier auch durch Zufall an Hilfe geraten.
Vielleicht schaue ich zu viel Fernsehen nachts wenn ich nicht schlafen kann, aber da gibt es tolle Sendungen wie Abenteuer Diagnose und so weiter. Und da bin ich immer sehr gerührt wenn auch sehr erschüttert.
Einige haben dann hier Hilfe gefunden und für diese Menschen freue ich mich, weil ich ahne wie nervig es ist nicht ernst genommen zu werden.
Also manchmal ist Google auch wirklich klasse und hilfreich.

Google has literally changed my life. The crazy thing is they just keep getting better and better and the apps get more efficient as time goes on. IOS vs Android? That’s an easy one for me. From what I hear though Google’s only competitor that concerns them is none other than Amazon and I can see why. In 5 – 10 years or sooner than that this rivalry is going to only get more heated.
As far as hardware is concerned I still think Samsung makes the best Google phones and hope they can get along so we keep getting some kick azz smart phones coming.
5 solid bonafide Unilocal stars for Google and well deservedly so!

Google … Thank you so damn much for allowing me to show people that I am right ! Like — all the time ! I am well read and brilliant and you let me prove it ! On the rare occasion that I don’t already know the answer, you teach me the correct one. Like the Oracle of Greece… All Knowing, I worship Thee.

WOW! I guess I can say a few words for Google. I am just thinking what if there were no Google in our life? Not just for web searching, Phone book, mail service, maps, AdWords, hangouts. ESpecially «Google Drive» (I don’t carry the flash memory anymore)
Now we are living the comfort of higher technology products with google. And it makes everything easy for everyone.
You must get an account from Google immediately if you still don’t have one.
Thanks Google!

Not to be confused with «googol» — the large number that is written as the digit 1 followed by one hundred 0s. Other names for googol include ten duotrigintillion on the short scale, ten thousand sexdecillion on the long scale, or ten sexdecilliard on the Peletier long scale.
… Google it.
(segway into Google)
An American multinational technology company specializing in Internet-​related services and products founded by Larry Page and Sergey Brin while they were Ph.D. students at Stanford University (my Dad taught at Stanford and I was born at SUMC. gratuitous drop). That Larry and Sergey are pretty cool cats. At the infancy of the modern internet, Google competed with other «search engines» such as AltaVista, WebCrawler, Yahoo, InfoSeek, Excite, Lycos, and others.
Google is not only a company name but is also a word that’s been ‘officially’ accepted into the English language as a verb. As defined, «google» …
* «(with object) Search for information about (someone or something) on the Internet using the search engine Google.» (The Oxford English Dictionary)
* «to use the Google search engine to obtain information about (as a person) on the World Wide Web» (Merriam Webster)
* «to​search for something on the internet using the Google​search​engine…» (Cambridge Dictionary)
It’s not hard to use Google. It’s hard to not use Google. Beyond the technological and information accuracy issues with the «internet» in general, I have no specific complaints about Google. EXCEPT, what is up with the Gmail mobile app. I hate it and will not use it.
There’s plenty of conspiracy claims and ‘big brother’ theories. true or not, I don’t really care and neither does most of the country. Read my email, record my searches, … have at it and harbor no envy, big brother.
Oh. they have a car now, too.

My guilty pleasure! Although I remember the times when there was no Google, I can’t imagine life without it now. People would actually have to have library cards again, use a thesaurus, dictionary, cookbooks and learn by doing instead of «searching».
We’d have some sort of privacy and irrelevant people wouldn’t be able to throw around the statement, «Google me» as often as they do.
Google, keeping the world lazy. I don’t know which is worse; Google or Siri.

My oh my how times have changed. I remember a time when Google didn’t exist. Ask Jeeves was the place to visit for anything!!!
Now that we are in the 2015, askjeeves is long gone and Google replaced them!!! Don’t be surprised if in a few years from now, Google ends up designing their own car and one ups Apple in something other than their phones!!!

Google.
What I love about Google. I was introduced to the world of porn via Google.
The late nights, when I bored and the thirst set in. I would creep through the house like a mouse stealing cheese. Turn on the power to my HP Desktop and search for all the hanky panky I could find via Google. I don’t give a chit, at least I admit it. Unlike the fakes who don’t. Those are the ones with the real problem. Not little olé me.
So Google thank you, so much. I will never be lonely again.
Sincerely VD.

Love Google!!! Googolplex is so big and fun! I got to ride the google bike and sneak around to take lots of pictures. They have a pool, café, haircut place, etc on site. How awesome is that?! Most importantly I use google everyday. Five star, hell yeah!

When by Google’s HQ it seemed excessive as far as an environmental footprint is concerned.
Did you know that when using Google if you type in a Japanese search using Chinese characters, only Chinese results come up?
That’s a problem.
And why are there only 14 Unilocal reviews for Google, are we being censored? LOL!

Its GOOGLE. Come on now. Everything about Google is awesome.
It was great to visit my boyfriend at work. Everyone here is super nice, and the food is super yummy! My little corgi sometimes goes to work too!

Cafes:
This is mainly my review on the Google cafeteria. The food is really up there with some 4 star restaurants. They even color code the food so you’ll know the health choices you’re making while pigging out. The pure wheatgrass juice bar… oh my. I felt like a cow. The best part? The price — FREE!
Thank god I don’t work for Google, or my diet plans will be derailed for life.
About the company:
Google changed the world. That is fact.
I may not agree with all its business practices, it is definitely more good than evil.
Most of Google buildings were used by former companies like SGI, so you can’t really rate its architecture.
The people… well, here is the thing. Most Google employees act like the Ivy elites… some may like it, while others may not. I’m sure there are exceptions, but that is the general feeling I got while interacting with them. I was there a few times…
Anyways,
Go Google!

Why doesn’t google have five stars?! My friend made it an amazing lunch experience, I guess. She took my brother and I to eat, then we went to take pictures at the android building. And I got to hop on to the googlers’ bikes and snap some pics. Haters gonna hate, I guess lol. Go google!

It’s all about lifestyle.
My boyfriend works at Google, so I might be a little biased. I’ve visited the campus twice. It’s a great office park with a sprinkling of art, sport areas, and great food. The idea of Google bicycles is pretty darn fun, too.
I’m rating this 5 stars because I believe all offices should base their lifestyle and culture to this high standard. The Google campus stresses the importance of humor, health, and life. I’m sure not all Googlers take advantage of all the amenities, but they are definitely very lucky. As an outsider, I’m definitely envious of the Google lifestyle.

I’m old enough to remember Lycos, Altavista, or AskJeeves. Those were the search engines of yore. But no one asks if you’ve Lycos’d or Altavista’d of AskJeeve’d anything lately. It was Google that became the verb synonymous with web searching.
Google has other services, of course. But I really only use the search features and Gmail. And Google Reader for the podcasts that sometimes don’t show up in iTunes.
The Google search engine has evolved over the years. I have adapted, but I no longer rely on it entirely. I love Gmail and the way that the spam filter works so well. I had Yahoo mail for the longest time, but the themes and ads were so distracting. Gmail is clean. It’s perfect for my simple lifestyle and for my personal accounts. However, I still prefer the familiarity of another software for business emails.
I’ve tried Google Docs when I worked with a few small businesses, and I just didn’t care for it. To be fair, I’ve used MS Excel and Word for nearly 20 years.
I also use Google News and Google Maps almost exclusively.
And of course, I love the Google Doodles. They are a fascinating take on «This day in history».
Overall, I’m very pleased with the services I want to use on Google. The ones I am forced to use — not so much.

How has no one written a review here yet?! Yay a first! Rarely happens nowadays.
Google is a fun quirky place to take a tourist for some cute pics of the dessert inspired operating systems and droid character (near building 44). It’s kind of cool to see the google map cars, gbikes, and even the navigation icons across campus. If you have a nerdy google lover just take them around!

Fun statue thingies to take pictures with. Haha we rode/​took pictures with the bikes. :)

I was thrilled when Google decided to give PayPal a run for their money thinking that maybe the fine folks at Google would offer up a more honest and efficient solution to the unregulated Internet payment system. But, alas, I’m disappointed to say that they, like their predecessors, have gone to the dark side.
Just like their competition, if they decide there’s something wrong with your account they lock it — without explanation — and keep your money for up to 180 days. I kid you not. Twice I’ve used my Google Merchant Account for start up home business and twice they’ve locked my account without explanation and held my money — this time on Christmas Eve keeping close to $ 4000 with no explanation of why.
They’ve requested copies of my Driver’s License, Social Security card, a copy of a credit card statement, business license, receipts and shipping verification. Heck, I’m surprised they didn’t ask for my fingerprints and birth certificate. So I give them all of my identification, tell them the clients already have the goods and service, and ask nicely for them to give me my money. They politely tell me no and ask for more documents.
Look Google, I know you have access to all of my emails and pretty much every piece of information about me imaginable on the Internet. In fact, you probably know more about me than I do. So you should know that I’m just a hard-​working playwright who’s trying to make a little money on the side selling wine, knick-​knacks and other goods. But you must know something else that I don’t if you can say that that I’m doing something so wrong that you’re allowed to shut down my business and keep $ 4000 of my hard-​earned money without giving me an explanation as to why. Well, at least you’re polite about it which is better than PayPal. But polite doesn’t make good business, especially when it comes to bullying the independent little guy.
I’m sorely disappointed in Google. Maybe Unilocal will give you a run for your money, literally.
