Google Turns 7, PRADE Hits Slightly Less Impressive Milestone
Today is Google's 7th birthday - and boy has this little search engine been an active toddler. When I was seven I was still wearing Transformers underwear and learning how to ride a bike. Meanwhile, Google is dominating the search engine and free-mail game and pioneering a host of new technologies that will likely drastically change the internet landscape.
One of these new technologies is Google Video- a service that has high aspirations of cataloguing television programming to make all of its content searchable over the web. As a demonstration of what a great tool this can be, Google Video announced that it is making the entire pilot episode of Chris Rock's new show available to watch online. This is great news if, like me, you missed the Everybody Hates Chris premiere last Thursday but have been hearing great things about the UPN hit.
And in related celebratory news - this is PRADE's 300th post. I wasn't quite sure what I was getting myself into when I jumped on the blog bandwagon - but I've really enjoyed the experience so far. While finding time to dedicate to PRADE has been challenging, hearing positive feedback from designers whose projects I've covered and receiving compliments from other respected bloggers has been extremely encouraging. So I'll try to keep up the effort on my end as long as the PRADE public deems my little musings readable enough to keep returning to the site.

I missed the pilot too, but now thanks to this I finally saw it.
Post a CommentPretty funny. It is like a throwback to the old school sitcoms of the 80's.
