Over a Million a Year.

That is picture of a person working at the Googleplex. He looks happy, content, and glad to work at Google. It also could be the fact that...

Google is the #1 place in America to work. Click here to find out why. There are so many perks at Google that there are over a million applications every year. And a very limited amount of people who work there. Everyone there, as the video clip claims, is happy. It's pretty awesome in comparison to the places that my peers and relatives work at.

My first reaction to this was, I am definitely going to work for google when I grow up! But then I remembered another video that my Social Studies teacher send me. Click here to watch it. It's really interesting. The part that I remembered was a statistic. It was something along the lines of someone being a technology major, and by the time that they are in their third year of college, what they are learning is old stuff. In other words technology is moving and moving fast.

Then I wonder, will big names like Apple and Google fade away? Is this like the Roarin' Twenties which was followed by the Great Depression? Will technology move so fast and furious that everyone will be left in the dust and machines will pretty much rule the world? In the second video, they talk about a time in the future where you can purchase a computer that is smarter that a human for aproximately 1,000 dollars. That's cool, but scary. What if these smart machines take over the world? And then it'll be the end of the world or something.

Okay, well, I'm starting to ramble, but that's just the what I was thinking. I really want to know about other people's opinions, so let me know!

PS. I have no idea how post videos, if someone can let me know great.
