Google is the best thing that has ever hit the internet they have taken everything to a new level with Google I am able to get everything I want off the web and I can do it really fast, Google has invaded my computer it has replaced almost all my Microsoft tools. I will explain my setup and how I utilize it, to start things off I have to tell you about my duel 21 inch monitor setup Yes they are CRT and they take up a lot of space but I have a Big Desk =D, I could not live without having 2 monitors I don’t see how I used to work without it, hours of struggling doing tutorials minimizing maximizing =/ now I can have 4 browsers open at the same time. Back to Google, I just got a Gmail account and I am LOVING it, how it seamlessly blends in with Google alerts (whenever a web page having to do with the words XYZ (XYZ Being anything) is published on Google I automatically get an email with the links to the published page) Gmail is by far the best email service I have ever used they need to make there own Email client. I am an active user of both Google Bar and Google Desktop Bar they are both awesome and save me a lot of time helping me find the sites I am looking for and remember sites that I have been to, I wont even starting going into how I fully utilizes them that’s a essay in and of itself my advice is just get them they are FREE =D. Google also just bought out some Media Organizing company that had a product called Picasa which is also very good at looking at all your pictures Here is a link to DL it , I will also post other great link inside of Google that you may not have ran into.
