Google... the inspiration...




"Sergey Brin"... sounds familiar??? "Larry Page"... sounds even more familiar???.. Yes, you have guessed it right... I'm talking about Google.. I can say it as the most influential company of modern era... The company has coined a new english word "google" to the english dictionary.. You can say "google" is the synonym of "search".Almost all netizens use google on everyday basis... At the age of 35, the cofounders (Sergey and Larry) are billionaires.. Have you ever thought how the company generates money?? No company can make this huge amount of money in such a short span of time by simply selling a product... When they started the company back in 1998, they had only one product with them i.e google web site... They knew that their product is solid and robust... So, they came up with a new idea for their revenue model... called "sponsored link".. Let me take this opportunity to say something about "sponsored link"... But before proceeding, wish all of you a very happy Diwali...

Sponsored Link

Google also generates its revenue through ads only... but in a different way.. You'll not find any banner ad in google's site.. it is against their rule... instead they give the ads through sponsored link...Let us understand what a sponsored link is all about.. Suppose you own an Indian restaurant (for your business) and you want to give its ad through Google.. and the speciality of your restaurant is fish curry. You want to highlight this part for your restaurant... Then make your key word as "fish curry" and give it to google. So, anyone who will search with the key word "fish curry" in google, your sponsored link will be displayed in the sponsored link area of google page... if the searching guy clicks on the sponsored link (it will redirect the page to your actual ad) then only you need to pay for your ad.. Before that point you need not pay anything to google... So, this marketing strategy is win - win situation for both google and the customer... So, the funda is that, if anyone visits your ad then only you need to pay the money... this is not like the banner ad... that whether anyone sees your ad or not you need to pay the money...

Bottom line... always think and act for the betterment of the customer.. If customer is happy then the service provider will be happier...

Thanks,
Srimaya Rath

Prior to the existance of Google there were many search engines name it like the Yahoo,Open Text,The Google of its day,Alta Vista,etc...Ironically, Google is now the oldest of the "new" players that has taken over from the old.By many different measures, it is today's the most popular search engine in use.

Here goes a famous quote very rightly said , “Often the difference between a successful person and a failure is not one has better abilities or ideas,
but the courage that one has to
bet on one's ideas, to take a calculated risk - and to act.” And this is what the pioneers of Google did by making Google simple,fast,easy and user friendly.
Since Google embodies within it the mastery of simplicity,i.e creativity and even
the mastery of complexity,i.e technical skill ,so they stand for where they are today.

“Creativity is not the finding of a thing, but the making something out of it after it is found”.So, in the long run Google has succeeded but nobody knows there might be new breeds in creation to sweep the market ,may be a "new" player or Google itself.Time will speak of it.Just wait and watch since technology is vast and ideas have no limits...

Cheers,
Annie.

Rameswaram Trip - Har Har Mahadev! Trip Date: Nov 5th and 6th 2022 Distance from Bangalore: 611 km Time taken by road: 11 hrs Road: NH 44 and NH 87 - Road condition - Excellent Rameswaram is a town on Pamban Island, in the southeast Indian state of Tamil Nadu. It’s known for Shri Ramanathaswamy Temple, a Hindu pilgrimage site with ornate corridors, huge sculpted pillars and sacred water tanks. Devotees bathe in the waters of Agni Theertham, off the beach east of the temple.  Lord Ram and Maa Sita had consecrated the Jyotirling at Rameswaram after killing Ravan while returning back from Lanka. 22 Kund Snanam or Theerth Snanam: 22 Kund Snanam starts with Samudra Snanam at Agni Theertham . It is believed that the first kund/theertham lies submerged under the sea and hence the snanam ritual starts from taking a dip at  Agni Theertham . Agni Theertham is just walking distance away from the main temple. After the Samudra Snanam it was time for the 22 Kund Snanam. And all t...

Moditwa...

Which was unthinkable some years ago, today it's reality.. the "Moditwa" (read in hindi).. In the recent 4th Global Investors' Summit, the corporate heads of India have endorsed Mr. Narendra Modi to be the future PM of India.. A big statement from the corporate biggies.. Can we digest Mr. Modi as the PM of India?? Can the world digest this?? Let us analyze what this man is all about.. why so many intellectuals are endorsing Mr.Modi?? Mr. Modi means.. 1. Industrialization of the state and job opportunity for everyone.. 2. Modernization.. both in rural and urban areas.. 3. Corruption free state.. No nonsense in bureaucracy.. 4. Very strong against terrorism.. 5. Having a great vision for the state.. a vibrant Gujarat.. Having said all these good for Mr. Modi, no one can deny about the Godhra incident.. Still the Godhra ghost is haunting Mr. Modi.. When the supporters of Modi have many things in their kit, the detractors of Modi are still talking about the only incident ...

UHAULing.... in US...

In this blog let me share my experience of shifting home in America... You have to do the following activities for shifting your home... 1) Buy the card board boxes and pack your stuffs on your own... 2) Rent a truck to shift your stuff from one place to other and you have to drive that truck on your own. That truck is provided by a company called UHAUL. 3) Place all your stuffs inside the truck on your own. So, you have to carry your sofa, bed etc on your own. Therefore, you have to be a body builder to do all these activities. Remember, here there is no human labour to help you out. If you are hiring human labour then be ready to pay a hefty amount. 4) OK... All the stuffs are now packed and placed inside the truck. Now drive the truck on your own. 5) Reach the destination. 6) Unload all the stuffs.... Again on your own... 7) Return the truck to UHAUL (company) and pay the rental... 8) Your shifting is done... Cool..... That's how you have to live in USA. So, life is very easy he...
