Photocopy is to xerox ......as search is to GOOGLE

According to a web information company, Alexa, Bing has reached the 19th position in traffic ranking in just a period of one month since it has been launched. Microsoft boasts of the fact that its 2.89 million users got increased to 4.9 (after introducing BING).

Forget about everything, as Google has already got 31 million users and has been the NO 1 ranked website in terms of traffic since 2005.

Google was founded by Larry Page and Sergey Brin while they were students at Stanford University and the company was first incorporated as a privately held company on September 4, 1998. But in just 11 years , it has reached a revenue of $ 72.796 billion , a net income of $42.27billion , total assets of $ 86 billion , has launched 19 stand alone desktop applications , 19 moblie applications and 80 web applications , making it the MOST POWERFUL BRAND in the world.

The meaning of Google is 1 followed by 100 zeroes and i guess that would be the target to reach , in terms of revenues and no of views per day, for the company.

“We’ve learned how to compete with Microsoft and Apple, but Google is a giant, of course, and competing with it is like a real tough competition ", said COO of Mozilla after coming to know that google has launched CHROME as a competition to Firefox.

"Google is not just a website for internet users , but its a habit ", said CCO ,Mudra , when asked to compare BING.

Let me list out some of the websites people visit daily.... youtube , orkut , blogger , gmail , wikipedia , picasa , google earth...Mind you , all these are products of google.

Time and again GOOGLE suprises people with its products and applications but this time the web based OS is surely going to make a revolution . . .
