Googlelicious

I can't think of a day that's gone by in recent memory when I have not used Google-- and when I say "use" I mean probably 5 to 10 times a day average. They've got it all: searches, maps, phone numbers, photos, videos, dictionary definitions, etc. I use "etc" because google now offers so much, I can barely keep track of it.

Thankfully, I'm not alone. The folks at TipMonkies.com put together a fantastic reference for us all: The Ultimate Guide to Google Services.

My fave new google service (which, shockingly, did not make the list) is their Pedometer service which allows you track the mileage of your runs/jogs, or in my case, brisk walks.

To keep up with google's new services in the future, check back with Google Labs.

Thanks Erica!

I too "heart" Google! They are just FANTASTIC! One little tip, if you put 'google ads sense' on your blog or webiste you can many a little pocket change. It doesn't sound like much, but it ads up and can help if you save it soley for your buisness. This month alone, I have already made $250!! A nice little chunk of change...

Oh, and if you are concerned about cluttering up your site, don't be... you can completely personalize it so it fits with your site.

Not a bad idea, Angela! I've given this a lot of thought but have yet to take the leap. It's good to know its working for you. I still struggle a smidge with the aesthetic aspect of it all, but it sounds like the extra cash might be enough to soothe my worries :)

I COMPLETLELY understand the asthetic aspect (I am working on changing mine up as I type this)... but you know what? Give it a try.... you can experiment with it and see how it goes on Paper Bride or just try it on this blog for a while. You can always take it off, if it doesn't work for you.
