Apparently Google knows everything.

kitty and Lully that's so funny! grin

It's weird to remember there were search engines before Google, most of which disappeared even though at the time they seemed like the best thing since sliced bread.

Time flies by in this age of technology. I ? Google!

Dr Google knows that every symptom you tap in is a life-threatening horror which will keep you awake all night and take you to A &E in tears next morning.
Dr Google doesn't know about colds (it's pneumonia), sore throats (cancer), indigestion (cancer), spots (meningitis), pulled muscles (it's a compound fracture), headache (brain tumour), cramp (it's tetanus), weight gain (you're pregnant), weight loss (anorexia), whiskers on chin (you're changing sex), depression (too much Google).

although I am feeling paranoid now.... [looks round] does Google know I am sneakily eating a Twix?

I remember when you could see the number of pages in Google stated under the search bar.....probably not room on the whole search page now!

I remember when I was teaching, a teacher was leaving and the kids were making a card. They were thrown because the couldn't find her photo when they put her name in clipart.

We've had DGC 4 & 5 overnight and keeping track of their 'stuff' is a nightmare. DGS gets quite upset if his 'stuff' gets lost and he couldn't find the top in which he arrived. After a fruitless search by all of us he announced, 'Well, we'll just have to Doogle it!'

If only Google was that good!
