🎉 Hooray! It's 2026 and we've finally standardized source maps—a mere 10 years after we started using them! 🙄 Apparently, a Google Doc was the secret sauce holding the web together all this time. 🍝✨

Today when signing into my Gmail found this exciting teaser from #Google "A new look is coming soon: Google is improving its sign-in page with a modern look and feel" (screenshot attached). It always makes me happy and inspires me to see Google doing what it does best, that makes them "the hottest business, media and technology success of our time" --quote from title of book The Google Story https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/164323.The_Google_Story by David Vise #goodreads, this book helped me a lot to learn from the genius of Google. Google has an uncanny ability to innovate novel methods to make products that stand out from the crowd, even when many others were trying out (inventing) different methods to achieve the same goal. #BillGates quote explains it nicely, "Gates acknowledged that Microsoft, for example—notwithstanding discussions about Internet search—didn’t execute as well as Google did. Though we were talking about it, he said, the talent we put on it and the way we conceptualized it weren’t sufficient in retrospect. That's always going to happen because there are thousands of companies trying specific things, and, you know, 999 of them fail. But there'll be one that has picked a very dedicated approach that does really catch on, and of course Google’s the best example of that."-quote from book The Greatest Business Decisions of All Time_ How Apple, Ford, IBM, Zappos, and others made radical choices that changed the course of business by Verne Harnish et al https://www.amazon.com/FORTUNE-Greatest-Business-Decisions-Time/dp/1603200592 #amazon. From my own experience I can give an example, so there are many #Notes apps and #Office #Docs apps available. Now turns out #WPSoffice that is otherwise comparable with #MicrosoftOffice has a simple feature of 'search within document' missing on its android app, but on other had #GoogleDocs can search inside document (find and replace button/tab) and also search selected text on document externally on your default browser search engine (search icon on keyboard). This example, to reiterate what #BillGates quotes above, shows again that when many are trying to build something (here build a note/doc app), #Google's way of building it (here Google Doc app) is better. I also got the new #GoogleKeep note taking app, and will try it out in future when need arises, but for now #GoogleDoc is what I'm using for my article 'Causal Climate Change Environment, Beyond CO2: Cow burp and MethaneSAT' , and in one click #GoogleAssistant is doing #TextToSpeech to read aloud to me my draft writing and also read out to me the online references I'm using, not to mention #GoogleAssistant is also taking written notes of my #dictation (writing down what I say). I usually do this #TextToSpeech #dictation with #Apple #Siri #Mac #iPad #iPhone but now on I will do this with #Google #Android #GoogleAssistant too, don't be jealous #Siri and #GoogleAssistant you're both the apple of my eye i.e. I like you both equally! :)
