Internet will be useless i think. 90% searches make by Google, so its horrible to think that if Google is not available, what about Google maps, Google images, News and videos. Life is so easy with Google and i cannot live without it. I love you Google.
Life without Google has to happen, bearing in mind it will soon turn 20 years old and wear out signs are everyday more noticeable. May a great search engine like it used to be comes up by the time we have to say "The king is dead, long live the king!"
For the avg user; they simply use another engine... however, for power players that rely on google... they are most likely to go out of business.... If google were to vanish..then there will certainly be a disturbance in the force....
Life without Google is really a difficult situation. It helps us to make life easier. But then, we can use Bing as an alternative.
Just a simple add in on this topic Yestarday I've found myself unable to use google search engine and for the first time I saw how terrible is this. I thought to myself: "well, it's not a problem, i'll just try other search engines on the market". And I've tried. I've tried Bing, DuckDuckGo and even Ask, but the results were rubbish compared to the google search engine. I thing it's a problem with my IP, because I can acces all other google services, apart from the search engine. Has anyone experinced that on a certain IP ?
Yestarday I've got home and again some of the google services wouldn't work. So i've tried searching for a solution for that problem on other search engine. Bing was rubbish, DuckDuckGo and Yahoo got me some fairly good results so I can solve this issue. It seems that my router had some issues and need a reboot, after all. But I was lazy enough not to do it until yesterday. Still, it gave me an opportunity to see how other search engines do when you need to search for some issues online.
People adapt no matter what. Google achieved its status in last couple of years. Human race existed long before it.
I don't use google very much. I like MSN. They probably have the best search results but they are a bunch of SOBs. Google was really nothing until adwords, then a guy named Chris Carpenter discovered that you could direct link to affiliate offers and wrote a book called google Cash. Money Flooded into Google from Affiliates useing adwords to promote review sites and direct linking with affiliate links. We were making money and Google was making money. Then one day Google just closed all of our accounts. I am still a little bitter.
Everyone doesn't like changes. Especially if you have to refuse in favor of the worst option. And all other options are worse. But it's not a tragedy. There're a lot of alternatives and soon everybody will switch to other search engine.
Without Google we'll not be able to do as many things we do today but we will find an alternative for this.
In my opinion, if there were no Google, there was another search! As soon as the technology process develops, developers have invented something new again and again. I think they would have long ago come up with a worthy alternative!
