    Google bigger than Facebook, Netflix and Instagram combined


    Posted: 23 Jul 2013
    We all know that Google is big, but a study released Monday showing exactly how big Google has become.

    Google, and its bevy of services, including Gmail, search, YouTube and Maps, now account for 25% of all Internet traffic in North America, on average, according to Deepfield, an Internet monitoring company that released the data. 25% sounds good but how significant is that in the online world?

    To put it another way, Google's bite is bigger than Facebook, Netflix, and Instagram traffic combined, Deepfield said.

    Google devices are getting more popular,
    I myself was contemplating the switch from iphone 4 on my next contract/ carrier as well lol,
    But in all fairness comparing Google with Facebook ?
    It would be fairer Facebook and Google+ and I wouldn't get those stats from Google :)
    But yes there is a Gorilla in the room and it's definitely Google.
    Can't say many good things about gmail in general compared with others like outlook.com,
    But Google does have a very good spell checker in Google toolbar/ far better than Chromes or ie10's
    But in shear size/ Surprised no.
    I'm more surprised people are not more concerned with the invasion of Privacy by Google.
    Possibly people know they're really not that interesting after all lol ?

    Google provides countless internet services, and has an OS on many devices. This is computer related news. If it doesn't interest you, move on

    People always need to find information and communicate, and, I guess, watch movies of cats."
    I don't think I have ever knowingly watched a movie of a cat. What on earth for?

    Collusion

    Collusion is an experimental add-on for Firefox and allows you to see all the third parties that are tracking your movements across the Web. It will show, in real time, how that data creates a spider-web of interaction between companies and other trackers.
