A Google Girl

I realised this morning something for which I am thankful.
I really don't know what I would do without Google, and without Firefox, for that matter. I had to download Firefox onto my Mom's computer, just so that I wouldn't stare at the screen blankly, helplessly wondering what to do without the search box, without tabbing, without iGoogle.

Google has given me:
Gmail, which has completely redefined the way I email
Calendar, which has organized my life (as much as it can be...)
Maps, which get me everywhere I need to be, tell me about what to do in areas, and allow me to stalk people whose addresses I know ;)
an automatic Blogger account!
and, my favourite to date... GOOGLE READER, which has in one way or another led me to the following awesome websites:
Also, here are the websites of some of my friends. (I do this not only because I love them, but also because I think they are ridiculously talented!)
I will post more awesome sites up at at later date. This is all for now... homework and studying to do! (Yay, finals.)

In Other News (happenings while typing...)
  • I'm watching the Sarah Palin speech from Dover, NH, and wishing it wasn't 11 AM and a school day, otherwise I'd be drunk from all the mentions of "Alaska" "maverick" and words with the "g" left off.
  • I'm a girl who likes to watch ESPN while I'm doing homework - it provides just the right amount of background noise, and information at the same time! But today I'm sick of it. I don't want to hear about the damn Cowboys anymore! Jeez!
  • Regarding above... changed the channel to CNN... oh, mistake... now where are my The West Wing DVDs?
