Why we should support Google

Well, after writing two blog entries criticizing compagnies, I'm thinking I should write a good one supporting a company.
Well I like Google's products, I mean every product let's see :
  • Google's search engine : simply the best out there, there are some functions that few know (link:www.website.com gives you all websites having links that references that site), and hey, it can translate a page for you, it can search for similar pages talking about the same subject, and the best of all, if the website is down, it can show you a cached version!!!
  • Gmail : I use it everyday, microsoft gives you a fucking 25 Megs, hey Yahoo gives 1 Gigs!! but who cares I have my 2.6 Gigs on GMail and it's growing in space every minute!!! and look to the functionnalities : AJAX to make it the fastest, conversations, and now we can chat with our GTalk pals from the same interface!!
  • Google Earth : even NASA couldn't make a better product.
  • Picassa : who cares about ACDSee when Picassa is there and free!!
  • And the list is very very long
Enough for the products, let's talk about the company, for years we've been using Yahoo and MSN without any new functionnalities, and now Google is here and every month we have some new feature (poor Yahoo and Microsoft are dying to follow ) and the best, FBI wanted to have the search logs from major search engines (imagine what they could do with that! everyone who's against the current regime will be fried, and hey, where are our democratic rights in there?? ) and what did they do? they all handeled them their logs, except who?? yeah Google !!

So yeah I support Google, and hope you all fellows do.
