Google полон сюрпризов. Очень немногие компании могут вызвать такие дискуссии, когда они меняют свой логотип. Но есть гораздо больше того, чем Google встречает глаз и предназначение этой книги - провести вас через глубины океана Google, так что вам никогда не придется гуглить это когда-нибудь снова.

There are three tech companies in the world that most of us will have heard of: Microsoft, Apple and Google. However, only Google has managed to infiltrate our lives in a complete way in a relatively short period and the reach is growing all of the time. Millions of us use Google services for email and even more utilise the company for web searches on desktop computers, laptops, phones and tablets. It does not stop there, though, because the superbly reliable calendar software organises individuals and companies alike, and even online video is dominated by Google thanks to YouTube.

All of this is incredibly impressive, but it is just the tip of an ever-growing iceberg and the more we think about Google, the more advantages we find. We can navigate for free anywhere in the world and view 3D re-creations of famous places using Google Maps. We can store and share our photos online whenever the mood strikes us and Google Now is there to automatically prompt us when an event is happening, or to offer information that is pertinent to what we are doing next.

Remarkably, the services that we have mentioned so far, which have a huge impact on our lives, are not even close to covering all of what Google offers - the list is never ending to the point that Google is no longer thought of as just a company. We say to 'Google it' when undertaking a web search. People describe their smartphone as their 'Android' and for many people 'Gmail' is the only word they use to describe email. Google services are embedded in our subconscious to the point that we no longer even think about them as single entities. They are just there, being useful in their individual duties and empowering us to do more every minute of every day.
