Google Gulp Quenches your thirst!

Although it's not April fools, this is another unique product from google. The FAQ are especially enlightening!


Quench your thirst for knowledge.

At Google our mission is to organize the world's information and make it useful and accessible to our users. But any piece of information's usefulness derives, to a depressing degree, from the cognitive ability of the user who's using it. That's why we're pleased to announce Google Gulp (BETA)™ with Auto-Drink™ (LIMITED RELEASE), a line of "smart drinks" designed to maximize your surfing efficiency by making you more intelligent, and less thirsty.

Think fruity. Think refreshing.
Think a DNA scanner embedded in the lip of your bottle reading all 3 gigabytes of your base pair genetic data in a fraction of a second, fine-tuning your individual hormonal cocktail in real time using our patented Auto-Drink™ technology, and slamming a truckload of electrolytic neurotransmitter smart-drug stimulants past the blood-brain barrier to achieve maximum optimization of your soon-to-be-grateful cerebral cortex. Plus, it's low in carbs! And with flavors ranging from Beta Carroty to Glutamate Grape, you'll never run out of ways to quench your thirst for knowledge.

Beta Carroty Glutamate Grape Sugar-Free Radical Sero-Tonic Water

How to get Gulped?
You can pick up your own supply of this "limited release" product simply by turning in a used Gulp Cap at your local grocery store. How to get a Gulp Cap? Well, if you know someone who's already been "gulped," they can give you one. And if you don't know anyone who can give you one, don't worry – that just means you aren't cool. But very, very (very!) soon, you will be.

Google Polishes up their new web browser called Chrome

There is another player in the web browser market now with the recent release of Google's very own web browser called Chrome. Google claims that Chrome is a browser that combines minimal design with sophisticated technology to make the web faster, safer, and easier. 

There are several reason's this wil be successful, which I'll explain later on. Google - until today - had no web browser, and was relying on Firefox as their supported and recommended platform.There was no real profit or Google branded web browser to support their huge advertising empire. Obviously with Microsoft's Internet Explorer being the largest installed webbrowser, Google had no alternatives. This meant that any advertisign revenues were not utilized as much as they could be. Google had to develop their own web browser, and it was only a mater of time. 

Google is unique and offers many great computer utilities absolutely free. They have an alternative to just about any popular software on the market, and it is free. The only missing componnent was a web browser. email, office, pictures, databases, website editing, free webpages, anti virus, anti spyware, you name it, google has it.

Now with Chrome, Google can release their own operating system to complete with Linux, Apple, and Microsoft. 

Chrome has an impressive list of features and can be downloaded here.
