Thinking about this on the drive in to work this morning, I was astounded by the number of Google Services, Tools or Software I use regularly. [For the purpose of this post, I define regularly as “several times a month”]. In no particular order, here they are:
- Google Search & its various avatars (Images, Mobile, Local, Package tracking, Area code, Flight Status, Movie Show timings, stock quotes, Music, etc)
- GMail
- Google Talk/GChat
- Google Reader
- You Tube
- Google Alerts
- Google Chrome
- Google Toolbar
- Google Finance
- Goog-411
- iGoogle
- Google Maps & Mobile Maps
- Google News
- Google Reader
- Google Docs
- Blogger (Passive user, i.e. reader of contect)
Some others that I use less frequently or have used in the past are:
- Google Checkout
- Google Product Search
- Google Earth
- Orkut
- Google Translate
- Picasa
- Knol
- Blogger
- Google Scholar
- Google Desktop
- Google Groups
- Google Calculator & Unit Conversion, Book Search, etc.
Phew, quite a list of prodcuts, right? I dont think I’ve forgotten any, but let me know if I have. And I dont pay for a single one…impressive!
