Google used to be one of the great things from the Internet. They started with the aim not to be evil but in 2018 relayed this central motto to some annex and started to behave evily. They still remain of a much better standard than other members from the GAFAM but head in the wrong direction. Censorship on YouTube for instance is particularly worrysome.

Here's a list of our favourite:

• http://www.google.com -- main page
• http://www.gmail.com -- Gmail
• http://maps.google.co.uk -- Google maps
• http://maps.google.com/streetview -- Google street
• http://images.google.co.uk -- Images
• http://scholar.google.com -- Scientific literature
• https://plus.google.com (dead) -- Google+
• http://translate.google.com -- Traduction
• http://books.google.com/ngrams -- Word statistics
• http://books.google.com/books -- Google books

May be you are less familiar with:

• http://www.google.org -- the charity
• http://googleblog.blogspot.com -- blogs
• http://www.google.com/trends

The Google products we don't fancy a lot:

• http://www.google.com/analytics -- not using it yet
• http://video.google.com -- not the best
• http://news.google.co.uk -- not the best
• http://www.google.com/finance -- we're not into that business

On 16 January (2020), I purchased a Google plan (Google One) to bring my unending escape from lacking space to an end [1].
