Google Search And Chrome : Best Combination
Now I am going to explain you some of the cool features that can be only made possible using the Google Chrome and the Google Search. But to Get the following feature You must need to Sign in the Google Chorme.
- ● Get the recently searched keyword in the suggestion box
The browser save all the keyword which you have searched in the history and displays the keywords when you search anything similar to it with the other suggestions. It also shows the option to remove if you want to remove that past search from the suggestion list. The example is also given in the below image (Click on it to see enlarge image).
- ● Shows the history about that website
This is the one of the best feature, which I personally really like it. This feature shows us that how many times we visited that link or that website and not just this much it also shows when the last time you visited that website. This helps the user that link is useful or not and also states whether I have visited it and can save his time rather than visiting the same site again. The example is also given in the below image (Click on it to see enlarge image). - ● Shows the preview of website without clicking on the link
When you search for any keyword in search box the best result comes out in that page.But who would you know that this is the only thing which you need. So the Google search offers you to watch the preview of website and check that is it the content which you needs. You can simply get the preview by clicking on the arrow button when you hover on the following link.
Switching To Google Plus : Infographic
But what do all of these compelling features really mean if your friends and family aren’t already on the site? Google+’s network of 100 million users still has a long way to go to build up its community to rival Facebook’s 800 million member base.
The infographic also highlights other interesting Google+ stats, including that nearly 70% of its users are male. Meanwhile, the top Google+ users on the site based on the number of followers is Britney Spears (2.67 million), Snoop Dogg (2.33 million), Google CEO Larry Page (2.24 million), Ashley Tisdale (2.04 million) and Hugh Jackman (1.96 million).

Make Free Calls From Your Smart Phone : CrowdCall
Have you ever thought of making free calls from your phone to any other phones or even to make free conference calls. Using the App CrowdCall Application you can do all so. It is available for Android and iPhone. I have tried it and its awesome. It really helps you when you don't have sufficient prepaid balance. Some of the Interesting features are as follows:
- Toll-free conferencing (up tp 10 calls a day) with people in 40 countries.
- Super low cost line charges for the rest of the world - wholesale rates.
- No dial in numbers or pin codes to remember. Dead Simple Conferencing.
- Secure and private, only those you invite will be able to join the call.
- Call anyone on your contact list - they don't need the app to participate.
CrowdCall is very different than any other app or service that enables group calling because:
1. It doesn't require anyone to dial in - instead it makes an outgoing call to all participants as soon as the originator presses the call button. That means that unlike GroupMe or Voxer or any other conferencing service, there are no line or carrier charges for using the service - it is truly free to all. It requires no work on the part of participants to join the conference, they simply answer the call and press "1" and they are in the conference. No dial in or pins required.
2. It doesn't require participants to have the app. If you have the app you can select the people you want to include in the conference from your contact list and hit the call button. Our server dials out to everyone using their regular phone number, they don't need the app or a smart phone or even a mobile phone, they just answer the call on whatever phone they have and they are connected, free of charge.
3. It saves your data network usage. CrowdCall only uses data connection for call setup; the voice is carried over regular phone lines. So it only consumes a tiny amount of data traffic and saves your data plan bill.

Consumers and businesses who don't want to buy new computers will be able to buy Windows 8 and upgrade their systems. New versions of Windows typically come out every three years, but this update is the most widely anticipated overhaul of the software since 1995.
Google New Easter Egg : Zerg Rush
According to KnowYourMeme, "Zerg Rush is a popular online gaming term used to describe an overwhelming scale of attack carried out by one player against another in real time strategy (RTS) games. The term originates from the popular RTS game Starcraft, in which the Zerg race is notoriously known for its ability to mass-produce offensive units within a short time frame, thus allowing the player to overpower the opponent by sheer number."

Google Drive : Save Your Data on Cloud
Today, we’re introducing Google Drive—a place where you can create, share, collaborate, and keep all of your stuff. Whether you’re working with a friend on a joint research project, planning a wedding with your fiancé or tracking a budget with roommates, you can do it in Drive. You can upload and access all of your files, including videos, photos, Google Docs, PDFs and beyond.
With Google Drive, you can:
- Create and collaborate. Google Docs is built right into Google Drive, so you can work with others in real time on documents, spreadsheets and presentations. Once you choose to share content with others, you can add and reply to comments on anything (PDF, image, video file, etc.) and receive notifications when other people comment on shared items.
- Store everything safely and access it anywhere (especially while on the go). All your stuff is just... there. You can access your stuff from anywhere—on the web, in your home, at the office, while running errands and from all of your devices. You can install Drive on your Mac or PC and can download the Drive app to your Android phone or tablet. We’re also working hard on a Drive app for your iOS devices. And regardless of platform, blind users can access Drive with a screen reader.
- Search everything. Search by keyword and filter by file type, owner and more. Drive can even recognize text in scanned documents using Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology. Let’s say you upload a scanned image of an old newspaper clipping. You can search for a word from the text of the actual article. We also use image recognition so that if you drag and drop photos from your Grand Canyon trip into Drive, you can later search for [grand canyon] and photos of its gorges should pop up. This technology is still in its early stages, and we expect it to get better over time.
Drive is built to work seamlessly with your overall Google experience. You can attach photos from Drive to posts in Google+, and soon you’ll be able to attach stuff from Drive directly to emails in Gmail. Drive is also an open platform, so we’re working with many third-party developers so you can do things like send faxes, edit videos andcreate website mockups directly from Drive. To install these apps, visit the Chrome Web Store—and look out for even more useful apps in the future.
This is just the beginning for Google Drive; there’s a lot more to come.
Get started with Drive today at drive.google.com/start—and keep looking for Nessie...
