It's the little things - Google rocks

by Vinny Carpenter on July 5, 2006

It's the little things that someone does right that I find interesting and cool. Case in point - Google. A bunch of us were talking about the Worldcup and we wanted to know when France was playing Portugal. So I go to Google as always and type in 'worldcup fifa' to find the FIFA homepage to look at the schedule and much to my delight, Google has answered by question by showing me the score of the last game as well as the time of the next game.

Google Search Results

It's a very simple thing but that information answered my question and I didn't have to go to the FIFA page to try and find the time of the next game. I know Google has been doing this for a while but this instance was an 'aha!' moment for me.

So it looks like Google is now just one step away from full blown mind reading!
