Holden Huffman Blog Post #4

                   Pictures are worth a thousand words.  They can tell a story, they can spread a message, they can capture history, and have the potential to do so, so, much more.  When on the topic of a picture that changed the world, I couldn't really think of one that wasn't already thought of, so instead I have a picture of an invention that would change, comfort, and shock not only the nation, but the world.  This picture is of Google.  Google started in January 1996 as a research project conducted by Larry Page and Sergey Brin.  This project would soon change everything after it led to the creation of a widely popular search engine.  Now, everything is suddenly at your fingertips.  If you want a recipe for chocolate chip cookies, you can now just "Google" it.  If you need directions to your Grammy's house, need your doctor's phone number, or if you just want to find something entertaining, you can search for it within seconds.  You can even search things about health conditions you may be having (although not advisable.)  Overall, Google has changed, comforted, and shocked the world.  It completely changed how we find information, it comforted us in letting us know that we have loads of information at our fingertips, and it shocked the world by how amazing and informative it is.  Google is something that has completely changed the world and will continue to for years to come.
