My Term Research Project
My term research project was essentially about Google as a company and its developments. I introduced to the class what Google was and how it came about. Then I walked through each break through product Google launched. I gave examples of how much of a social impact Google was to society since its launch. Once of my examples was Google as a dictionary. I also used Google's unique corporate model as an example too. I compared Google's efficiency to the common people and to people with bad intentions. That Google services are open to them too. My example was the public use of Google maps. =)

Very timely presentation. I heard that because of the attacks in Mumbai some are calling for a restriction of Google Earth. One of the militants admitted that they used Google Earth to prepare for the attacks. Really shows how the knife cuts both ways. I wonder how an attack on the infrastructure of the Internet would affect the economy.
Amazing how the convergence of google maps and other new media creats the earth such a small planet(communication/information wise. Cool presentation!!
Thank you for your information. Everyday, I uses google for my search engine and I heard a lot of news about google. However I did not know specific information about google company and their service.
