Isn't is amazing how much stuff Google has come out with? Like calendar, spreadsheet, instant messenging...

I was just curious as to how many people use this stuff, and if so, what do you use?

I usually just use the basic 2. Search for links and pictures. But some time I like to watch Google Video, (and Youtube geez chill out) and use Google Map to spy on my friends. :p

Well... I use GMail (with the notifier and Google Talk), Writely, Google customized search, that 3-D program, Blogger, Google Analytics, and I use Google Maps and Google Earth all the time to find places I need to go, and all the little stuff they have that everyone uses. And... I use it to search the web.

I use the google personalized homepage. Pretty useful, it's got links to all the sites I go to, some games, other cool stuff. It's pretty cool.

Actually, I think Alec is pulling our leg. I'm pretty sure he mentioned Google Image Search in a recent conversation.

I used to use Google Earth and Sketchup a lot, but I barely open both programs now. Currently I use Gmail along with Google Video.

Oh, I see. It's a search engine.

Well, I can't really see what's special about it. I have a different search engine.

Wow... youw eren't kidding. That's really weird, I've never heard of any computer user who didn't know google.

Google is usually the best search engine. You can usually bfind the best results there. Google also has lots of awesome extra features, like GMail, which is supposedly one of the best email providers, Google Personalized Homepage, where you can put links to your favorite sites, word of the day, games, and all kinds of stuff. There's Google Earth (and maps) where you can travel around the world and look at things. SOme of Google Earth is even 3D (The Grand Canyon is awesome) and there's also Google Moon and Google Mars. You shoudl really check out some of the stuff they have, Alec, it's all awesome.

I don't really use Google for anything other than the occasional search and for SketchUp and Earth. I lean more towards Yahoo! with searches. I mainly use SKetchup for 3D drawing, though I'm not good at it at all.

I use it to search for sites and pictures. I used to use Blogger, but not anymore. I sometimes watch Google Video, but only when people ask me to check out certain videos on it, so... yeah. I'm not that big of a Google user, but it's the only thing I'll search with.

Personalized Home, Video, Gmail, Page Creator (my website being at http://year2000prob.googlepages.com)... That's all I can remember. :eekdance::eekdance::eekdance::eekdance::eekdance::eekdance::eekdance::eekdance::eekdance::eekdance::eekdance::eekdance::eekdance::eekdance: Hehe... Super Sam has a point. Why are people so obsessed with eekdancers?
