Google, not just a search engine.
Larry Page and Sergey Brin are the creators of Google.
When they first realized their project, their "society", they were working in a garage they were renting. (1998)
Craig Silverstein, the actual director of Google Technology, was here since the beginning.
Their motor engine already responds to 10 000 requests per day!
They moved in an office in 1999, answering to 500 000 requests per day.
Companies of venture capital helped them by giving to them 25 million dollars.
The Google society moved a last time to the "GooglePlex", California. AOL/Netscape chose Google as search engine. It became a true search engine that answers to 3 million requests per day.

In 2000 Google became bilingual and became the first search engine in the world.
Today, Google is known all around the world. It has applications for nearly everything and its power is huge.
Books are classified by theme: classics, trending topics, magazines, photography, medical, political science, religion
On the left side we can browse popular books and browse subjects where we have the choice between different subjects and they are classified in an alphabetic order. When you click on a gallery we can see the presentation of the book: there is the image, the title, we can search if we want where it's written:"from inside the book", below this we find "what people are saying" (about the book),"related books", "contents", it proposes other editions of the book, "common terms and phrases", it proposes a bibliographic information, with the title the author the publisher the origin when it was digitized and the length.
Questions:
1. What kind of features can you find if you click on « more » on the upper left side? http://www.google.fr/intl/fr/options/
Have you ever use any of them? If yes, which one(s)?
2. On the part « Books », how are they classified? Which category is the most interesting for you? http://books.google.fr/books?hl=fr

ReplyDelete1)There are several icons to access various options such as news, alerts, calendar, translator, Picassa, YouTube etc.
Yes, we already used one of these other products such as the translator, google earth, maps, or youtube.
2)In the "books", they are classified according to their theme for example, "classical," "magazines", "medicine" etc.
The category that interests us most is the magazines.
3)We can put our phones different applications such as google maps, gmail, youtube, google buz, research ..
We have none of these applications because we have not a phone adapted to (a laptop).
4)The 3 items are:
- "Nicolas Sarkozi defends its policy"
- "Fire in Dijon: two arrests, the track criminal privileged"
- "Mediator: the Minister of Health calls for consultation"
5)We think all options can be useful but not essential, indeed, we do not think it is essential to have SketchUp (create 3D model) or panoramio on your mobile, however some options may be very interesting and practical as google maps, directory or gmail which are applications that we use very frequently on the computer.
Once on the computer, it is true that we think to use some application, but before we did not think there were so many, we used the main ones, as the translator, youtube or updates ..

ReplyDelete1- We can find several features such as books, translate, blogs, Youtube, Agenda, pictures, documents, Reader, Sites, groups,Picassa, Gmail, News etc… We have already used Translate, Youtube, Picasa, Gmail, News, Pictures.
2- They are classified in different topics such as “interesting”, “classical”, “magazines” etc… The one which is the most interesting for us is “Travel”.
3- We can import on cell phones Googlemaps, Gmail, Youtube for exemple. We don’t have such features on our cell phones.
4- We can read on the actuality feature of Google UK: Royal wedding: Westminster Abbey's historic moments ; Ireland likely to seek loan from EU-IMF ; Honeymoon Carjack: Man Charged With Murder.
5- Some of these options can be useful. But in our opinion, there are many people who don’t know that it exists all these options. We don’t think that if we need one of them we will use it because it’s not usual to find them on Google options. We only use those we know.

ReplyDelete1) We can see on the left side many features like Youtube, Traduction, Agenda or Blogger.
Yes, I have already used Youtube to see videos, Gmail and the Traduction tool.
2) We can see that they are classified according to their themes. There is a large variety of books like classic books, law books, literary critic books and an "interessant" category.
For me, the most interesting category is the "magazine" because it proposes different kind of old magazines.
3) I can't import any feature because I have a old mobile but I would like to import Youtube and my Gmail messaging.
4) At the moment, if I clik to "actuality" I can see fist " Affaire Karachi: le résumé des épisodes" then " des casques bleus de nouveau pris à partie à Haiti" and " Incendie de Dijon: les deux suspects mis en examen". That's to say the last news !!!
5) Yes, I think all these features are useful, they allow to work, to have a good time and to discover many things. I like so much Youtube, Traduction and Gmail: I use them nearly every day !!
