Is Gogle god??!!??

http://www.thechurchofgoogle.org/Scripture/Proof_Google_Is_God.html

Is google god? or is it just some crackpots crazy rants. I think that although it is very close to god in many aspects it is not quite there yet. God cannot be replaced by a machine or a cleverly designed bit of software because god has to make moral and ethical choices which a computer cannot yet fathom. Yes it is true that Google can potentially be everywhere, contains almost all of human knowledge, and is potentially immortal. It is not god because it has no ethical or moral brain. It is merely a tool for human use. Also if google were god it would be all powerful which it isn't simply because it cannot function outside the realm of cyber space. sure it potentially controls all of cyberspace but it cant function anywhere but. So even though it is the closest measurable thing to god it isn't god. This debate can lead into whether god is real or not, but for the sake of argument lets assume god neither exists or doesn't exist.

Google!

http://www.topstrange.com/google-empire-2882

Google is our answer to everything these days! If you have a question, look it up on google, if you want to know about a movie or a restaurant or even a person, look it up on google. But how far is google going? Google now has everything from answers to hardware. I think that if google progresses at the same rate it will reach a point where it owns us and all we will be is slaves to google. I mean look at that video linked above. It makes it pretty clear about what google is planing on doing. Google is trying to buy the internet and the electricity that runs the computers from which you use google. So does this not show that they ay be planning on controlling when where and how we use the internet. Not only will they control the hardware they will control the software too. They want us to use google docs and gmail and so on, so that they own all of our intellectual property. This is a scary thought because nothing we do on the internet ever truly gets erased. So when we look at it our lives will be owned by google and everything we do will be on record. So to conclude i believe google is trying to own us all and make us slaves to their products.

TV!

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-11178043

The fact that technology, like that of the linked video, is advancing so rapidly means that we may not even need multiple devices to entertain ourselves with anymore. The near future holds awesome innovative technologies such as those OLED TV's that have amazing quality and are only 2.9 mm thick. When that TV is combined with the internet, like many TV's are becoming, then the computer losses a lot of it's use.
TV's aren't only becoming connected to the web and thinner, they are headed for a complete over in how we watch TV. These days it has become so very easy to just download and watch your favorite shows on your own time that there is no need to watch scheduled TV anymore. This has had such a huge impact on the TV that many companies sought other ways to have people still watch their favorite show whilst not having to have it be scheduled programming. Thus Tivo was born, but is not the only product out there for on demand TV. Many companies have had to change their broadcasting to the internet, so that they can still make some sort of profit from their shows.
So where is it all headed? no one knows for sure but it is safe to assume that the next step after 3D TV and ultra thin TV's is probably holographic displays, which are already being researched and developed. As for TV programs they will just have to find a new way to use the internet to make profitable TV shows.

Fight Club Quotes

“The ability to let that which does not matter truly slide”

I think that many ,and I mean MANY people do not have this ability. We all need realize that we need to just let things go, because holding a grudge will eat uyou up from the inside. How is it that people say oh it doesn’t matter but then they get so hurt by it? Why do small things that have no consequence to anything or anyone have to be such a big deal? Small things like someone bumping into you on the street shouldn’t matter at all because it hasn’t done anything to hinder your progress. So why do people let it bother them so? I think everyone needs to just relax and let the small things go and the world will be a better place for it.

"Sticking feathers up your butt… does not make you a chicken."

This is funny you have to admit but it does show a very interesting part of our culture today. We all think that we can be “cool” or “perfect” by being like someone else. But this is just the same as sticking feathers in your butt and saying that you are a chicken. Why try and be something else when being yourself is closer to beauty that perfection than anything else? Why do we feel we need to like someone who in popular culture is called “beautiful” it’s a self-destructive pattern that needs to end now before we destroy and hope of thought and free will, which I doubt we have now.
