3 Issues on Google? oh please if you add a “d” it’s a verb already

I’m a positive person that prefers to see the bright side of life. I think there are enough negative thoughts, comments, etc. in this world to be looking at the empty half of the glass. Today I heard a very fulfilled and successful person say “I never learned to subtract or divide, I was only interested in adding and multiplying”, I had to laugh but I valued the message. My point is that I will give two positives and only one negative issue on Google.

My friend Nicolas has a internet company with a revenue of a little over $4 million per year and its all thanks to Google. It took me a month to understand how the hell he was making so much money just working 4 hours a day and living in a furnished apartment in Miami, traveling every 3 weeks to where ever. That’s my first point; Google provides a platform in the internet with tools, access, information to a market of buyers generating internet marketing advertising revenues of $5.5 Billion very 3 months in the U.S. alone.

It’s overwhelming, crazy, eye opening, $$$$$$ even our professor couldn’t resist getting a tiny piece of that market. So there is no criticizing GOOGLE for making it possible with Adwords , Adsense , Google Analytics , and all the other applications that help you LINK THE SEARCH TO THE PRODUCT.

I recently bought a scooter to move around Madrid, I really don’t know the place that much but Google Maps has saved me. I go into the google maps of my cellphone and I search for restaurants, gas stations, or specific addresses and GOOGLE gives me estimated time of arrival (ETA), mileage, and best of all = real time directions. Google maps has saved me when I’m lost in cities I don’t know, whether I’m walking, driving, public transportation, God bless Google. Things like this makes Google a company to be thankfull for.

Here comes the negative; Google makes us vulnerable. It has put so much available in the internet (somebody else would have done so otherwise) that there is no boundaries to privacy/copyrights and all related. So be careful because you might get googled!!!
