...Digital Tools for Time Management Juan Gonzalez Network System Administration ITT Technical Institute Ms. B 04/18/2016 Time management is very important to be able to have a schedule and a time for everything. If there were easier ways to keep track of time or look up information faster to save time that would be by using digital tools. One digital tool that pretty much is very common is Google. Another common digital tool that is used a lot would be youtube, it is a very popular site for video content like music videos, tutorials, etc. Another form of digital tools is Wikipedia. These three digital tools that I have mentioned are a few of the most common tools used today. There are very many search engines out there, but there is definitely one that in my opinion trumps them all, and that is Google Search. Google Search is also already programmed into the address bar on your smart phones, so when you have to do a search, it is as easy as just using the address bar to type the information you are searching for and it automatically takes you to Google Search. It has helped a lot when it comes to time management, to find the information need to write that paper can be easily found at just a click of a button and just like that you have found all the information needed to write that paper. You can input addresses and it can easily give directions to your destination. Google Search has become pretty much a one stop shop for all you’re searching. How can we...

...retrieving system to putting forth more rapid and greater volume of information in short time than possible. Internet is supposedly called as the fastest way of getting the information on hand. There are number of tools available to the students to help them with their academics such as newspaper, books, technical papers, written thesis but finding a specific information from these sources can sometimes be time consuming, tedious and almost impossible. Thus Internet is the only tool where one can find any details of small piece of information in less time. Other than Internet, other sources are reliable sources and require no counter verifying but data found on Internet must be verified with other sources as well. How to Search the Internet? According to Bell (2004), libraries that give the surplus of information can no longer satisfy the people who are craving for fast retrieving, easy access to unlimited information even though it has full text content thus people prefer using unorganized Internet rather than organized library. Often there is a dilemma about where to search for good information over the Internet. There are number of website some of which are standalone search engines eg www.google.com , www.bing.com and some of them are providing an addition tool on their website which works as search engine e.g www.yahoo.com, www.rediff.com etc. All of them provide the useful information that you need. But the two most useful and important search engines over the Internet...

...has scaled up by a large margin to keep up with the development of the web in the past decade. Presently, Search engines are the most popular and significant tools offered by the World Wide Web. The vast and extensive information present on the Internet can be accessed with the aid of these tools. More descriptively, search engines can be described as computer programs that perform searches of the documents on the Internet that contain the words or phrase that are of interest to the users. Many search engines of varying types and forms are developed and made available to the web every day. A notable majority of these tools provide reviews of websites in addition to search for keywords. Presently, Google and Yahoo are the most popular search engines available on the web. The internet search engines were created to simple the problem associated with obtaining the relevant results from a simple search query. From their onset, search engines have developed into the most successful applications present on the web today according to recent research. Search engines are categorized as either crawler-based, human-powered or hybrid. Of the three types, crawler-based engines are the most popular. The engines work by application of special software mechanisms popularly known as crawlers, or preferably spiders. Crawler software tools sift through the various WebPages following the links available to the websites. Additionally, the software revisits the WebPages occasionally checking for any...

...Entrepreneurial Innovation at Google Alberto Savoia and Patrick Copeland, Google To fully realize its innovation potential, Google encourages all of its employees to think and act like entrepreneurs. arge organizations have enormous innovation potential at their disposal. However, the innovation actually realized in successful products and services is usually only a small fraction of that potential. The amount and type of innovation a company achieves are directly related to the way it approaches, fosters, selects, and funds innovation efforts. To maximize innovation and avoid the dilemmas that mature companies face, Google complements the time-proven model of topdown innovation with its own brand of entrepreneurial innovation. L INNOVATION POTENTIAL The concept of innovation potential is a critical, but often overlooked, element in the discussion of innovation; defining and understanding this potential is important because it is the source of all innovation within a company. Intellectual.

...Running head: MODULE 2 – WRITTEN ASSIGNMENT 2 Module 2 – Written Assignment 2 Thomas Edison State College Module 2 – Written Assignment 2 This paper describes why search engines and databases produce different types of queried results. Two (2) separate search tools were used and this paper attempts to explain why there are differences in search results obtained from each search tool and evaluate the quality of their search results. Module 2 – Written Assignment 2 Searching for information via the Internet will always produce invariable results. This notion can be exaggerated depending upon the tools one uses to query for information. That is not to say that the Internet cannot be used as a valuable research tool. On the contrary, studies have been conducted to support the use of Internet-based research in many fields, including the medical field (Ahern, 2005). While the Internet search engine can be a powerful tool for research, it should be noted that not all search engine tools are created equal. Different Internet search engines will in fact return different results. Therefore, great care must be taken to ensure that the appropriate search engine is chosen for the job. Some of the different types of search engines include: Crawlers, Directories, Meta, Hybrid and Specialty. Search query options enable users to refine their searches in an attempt to find more relevant information. These particular options vary according to the search engine...

...Google, created by Larry Paige and Sergy Brin, was founded in 1998. Before it was named Google, the search engine was called BackRub. This search engine was created to help people and businesses find exactly what they were looking for on the World Wide Web. Their goal was to create a search engine that “understands exactly what you mean and gives you back exactly what you want.” ("Our products and services – Company – Google," n.d.) Google also provides businesses with online tools to help run and expand their business, through advertising and other means. FastCompany.com has dubbed Google as being the “most successful Internet company of our time…” ("Most Innovative Companies 2014 | Fast Company | Business + Innovation," n.d.)

This paper will deliver qualitative data from research prepared and analyzed. Introduction In the twenty first century the face or in this case the faces of fortune five hundred companies are becoming younger and younger better known as generation ‘X”. From Facebooks owner Mark Zuckerberg to the two fledgling faces of Google Larry Page and Sergey Brin, what use to look like a three piece suit and loafers now look like khakis, a polo style shirt and Sperry’s. The world is changing and so is the way we bank, date, shop and for the most part find answers to anything we need to know. From BackRub’s To Google Google has become a household name so much so that in two-thousand six, Oxford English Dictionary added the word “Google” as a verb and has become a chosen way of researching almost anything for some as results will show later on in this paper. In nineteen ninety-six two Stanford University college students formed a company called BackRub which was created to find the significance of certain webpages. This search engine was made available to the student body of Stanford University only; and within four months the search engine was receiving over ten thousand searches daily which was a clear indication that there was a great need for a service of this kind and...

...Data Mining for Predictive Analytics Stanley Kenton Marks December 11th, 2012 Abstract Simply collecting data for research is nearly a faux pas in today’s competitive web-market. Analysts are now looking toward the predictive analytics of association discovery in web and data mining, to find Business Intelligence of clustering sub=populations while eliminating errors to keep collected data valid. In the midst this data crunch are fears of lost privacy. Do not fear. Creative innovations are bringing mash-ups to our diversity. Data Analytics Report Useful information, knowledge and finding some unexpected results can “strike it rich” with added creative thinking. Data mining supplies analysts, investors, and traders with customers buying patterns, historical trading rules, even fraudulent behavior for insurance claims. Predictive analytics is used in web mining by analyzing user’s movements from one web content to another. Collecting the data of where a user browses and the content they are seeking can become knowledge if the analyst understands the patterns (Turban & Volonino, 2011). An Association Discovery Algorithm is a tool of data mining where new rules are discovered such that if one item is present then another will also be found. This type of knowledge benefits analyst’s predictability of future probabilities and is very useful to the marketing department, (Ranjan, 2008). A traditional example you...

...English 1101 19 September 2014 Googling for Convenience In The Atlantic magazine article, “Is Google Making Us Stupid,” the author, Nicholas Carr, conveys his complications with concentration while reading long articles and books. Carr blames the Internet for retraining his brain and states that, “Over the past few years I’ve had an uncomfortable sense that someone, or something, has been tinkering with my brain, remapping the neural circuitry, reprogramming the memory” (1). There could be many reasons for the change that Carr has noticed. Perhaps his age is changing the way his brain processes information. I doubt that the Internet is the cause of his concentration issues. Contrary to Carr’s opinion of the Internet creating concentration difficulties, I believe the Internet works as a tool to enable us to use our time more wisely, efficiently, and productively. I can now use my time more wisely, because the days wasted on trips to the library have become a thing of the past. Nowadays, the library comes to me. I find this to be a better use of my time and allows me time to pursue more enjoyable activities. Even Carr agrees that research has become easier, through the use of the Internet, when he states, “The Web has been a godsend to me as a writer. Research that once required days in the stacks or periodical rooms of libraries can now be done in minutes. A few Google searches, some quick clicks on hyperlinks, and I’ve got the telltale fact or pithy quote I was after”...

...KERRY HERMAN Google Inc. Google’s mission is to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful. — Google’s mission statement yo In December 2005, Google paid $1 billion for a 5% stake in Time Warner’s America Online (AOL) unit. The implied $20 billion valuation for AOL came as a surprise; JPMorgan had recently valued the unit at $13.7 billion.1 However, the partnership was important to Google, which had signed a fiveyear deal to continue providing web search results and search-based advertising to AOL, as it had done since 2002. Google was expected to earn about $600 million in gross advertising revenue from AOL searches in 2005.2 The share of ad revenue that Google would pay to AOL was not disclosed, but seemed likely to exceed the 85-90% estimated for the prior deal.3 No tC op In addition to its $1 billion equity investment, Google would provide a $300 million credit for ads on Google promoting Time Warner products and would showcase Time Warner content in a special box on some Google search results pages. Critics complained about reports that Google would provide Time Warner with information about its search algorithms in order to help its partner’s pages secure higher positions in search results. Commenting on Google’s accommodations to AOL, author John Battelle said: “Each of them represents a step closer to a slippery slope. What they are giving away is the perception in the market place that Google isn’t for sale...
