Google-rific 10 things You didn't know you could do with Google

Google the search engine that does it all and then breaks a law has much more than you would think for the average search engine... which of course there's something new everyday. But here's my top 10 list of what you didn't know you could do with Google.
1. Google Pack it chooses the best ways and free software that can speed up and help your internet search computer as well as more random stuff you didn't know you needed.

2. Google lab's Chrome experiments and entire website dedicated to you turning Google chrome into a new java scripting adventure, create by the people for the people.

3. Google Knol an entire listening of sharing what you know with others and reading what you don't know about, you can publish your own expertise.

4. Google Books, an entire library of E books some are free and some you have to pay for but if your bored at work and YouTube is too loud you can always read a free book.

5. Google Patents this one I found to be a bit weird but to each his own you can search for a patent and there are like 7 million of them. I guess if you want to buy the patent go for it.

6. Google Code this one is an entire site dedicated to teaching and playing with code and programming I found it to be interesting. Programming can be fun it you want to play on the code playground.

7. Google Realtime you can literally search for whats going on right now all over the world from popular blogs to news sights and the ever famous social sites (in my opinion awesome way to one up twitter Google)

8. Google Sketch up this one I found recently I absolutely love it, it takes a minute to figure everything out but its more fun than I had thought you can draw anything you want and it comes out amazing. Proof that you don't have to know how to draw to make something beautiful.

9. The last one leads me to this one here, Google Building Maker
it's an extension to sketch up but it is fun as well, you can make the buildings and it can be placed on Google earth for the building lists that they have. There are some amazing ones up there but there's room for greatness everywhere.

Last but of course not least we have reached number ten. This is a good one too.

10. Google has released an APP Inventor for Droid. This program is hard to get but when you do get it the wait will be worth it. It's a regular people way to make Apps for droid phones and those with the android software. It allows a live look as you work on your phone to make the app, so that you know if something is wrong while you are making the app itself no programming then stopping to test it. It allows you to use many of the Google apps out there as well to show places or gps items needed etc. By far it is the best rare release yet.

And that my dears is my list of 10 things you didn't know you could do with Google. And is you did know shhh let other people read it so they know too don't ruin the surprise.
