4. 1) Google Adwords
• Google AdWords is Google's online advertising program.
• Google AdWords is a product that you can use to promote your
business, help sell products or services, raise awareness, and increase
traffic to your website.

5. 2) Android Auto
• Android Auto extends the Android platform into the car. With a
simple interface, standardized user interaction model, and powerful
voice actions, it’s designed to help minimize distraction so drivers can
focus on the road.
• Designing interactive apps for cars is fundamentally different than
designing for handheld devices. App content and interactions should
complement the driving experience while minimizing driver
distraction. UI must be simplified to help keep the driver’s eyes on the
road and hands on the wheel.

6. 3) Blogger
• Blogger is a blog-publishing service that allows multi-user blogs with
time-stamped entries. It was developed by Pyra Labs, which was
bought by Google in 2003. The blogs are hosted by Google and
generally accessed from a subdomain of blogspot.com. Blogs can also
be served from a custom domain owned by the user (like
www.example.com) by using DNS facilities to direct a domain to
Google's servers. A user can have up to 100 blogs per account.
• Up until May 1, 2010, Blogger also allowed users to publish blogs to
their own web hosting server, via FTP. All such blogs had to be
changed to either use a blogspot.com subdomain, or point their own
domain to Google's servers through DNS.[8]

7. 4) Google Camera
• Google Camera is a camera application developed
by Google for Android. It was initially supported on all devices
running Android 4.4KitKat and higher, but is now only officially
supported on Google's Nexus and Pixel devices. It was publicly
released for Android 4.4+ on the Google Play Store on April 16,
2014[and removed from public view on Feb 17, 2016.
• Whilst Google Camera is now made solely for specific device
hardware, in mid-2017, a developer created a modified version of
Google Camera for any smartphone equipped with either a
Snapdragon 820, 821 or 835 processor.

8. 5) Google Cardboard
• Google Cardboard is a virtual reality (VR) platform developed by
Google for use with a head mount for a smartphone. Named for its
fold-out cardboard viewer, the platform is intended as a low-cost
system to encourage interest and development in VR applications.
Users can either build their own viewer from simple, low-cost
components using specifications published by Google, or purchase a
pre-manufactured one. To use the platform, users run Cardboard-
compatible applications on their phone, place the phone into the
back of the viewer, and view content through the lenses.

9. • The platform was created by David Coz and Damien Henry, Google
engineers at the Google Cultural Institute in Paris, in their 20% "Innovation
Time Off". It was introduced at the Google I/O 2014 developers conference,
where a Cardboard viewer was given away to all attendees. The Cardboard
software development kit (SDK) is available for the Android and iOS
operating systems; the SDK's VR View allows developers to embed VR
content on the web as well as in their mobile apps.[4]
• Through March 2017, over 10 million Cardboard viewers had shipped and
over 160 million Cardboard app downloads had been made. Following the
success of the Cardboard platform, Google announced an enhanced VR
platform, Daydream, at Google I/O 2016.

updates back in the other direction, over a network.

12. 8) Google Cloud Print
• Google Cloud Print is a Google service that lets users print from any
Cloud-Print-aware application (web, desktop, mobile) on any device
in the network cloud to any printer – without Google having to create
and maintain printing subsystems for all the hardware combinations
of client devices and printers, and without the users having to install
device drivers to the client, but with documents being fully
transmitted to Google. Since July 23, 2013 it also allows printing from
any Windows application, if Google Cloud Printer is installed on the
machine.

13. 9) Google Ad Manager

Internet-based social network that is owned and operated by Google.
• The service, Google's fourth foray into social networking, experienced
strong growth in its initial years, although usage statistics have varied,
depending on how the service is defined. Three Google executives
have overseen the service, which has undergone substantial changes
leading to a redesign in November 2015.

17. 13) Google AdSense
• Google AdSense is a program run by Google that allows publishers in
the Google Network of content sites to serve automatic text, image, video,
or interactive media advertisements, that are targeted to site content and

by Google. They can generate revenue on either a per-click or per-
impression basis.
• Google beta-tested a cost-per-action service, but discontinued it in October
2008 in favor of a DoubleClick offering (also owned by Google). In Q1 2014,
Google earned US $3.4 billion ($13.6 billion annualized), or 22% of total
revenue, through Google AdSense.

reply suggestions, and an optional encrypted mode. Users can resize messages and add
doodles and stickers on images before sending them.
• Before launch, Google touted strong privacy in the app, with particular emphasis on
messages stored "transiently and in non-identifiable form". However, at launch, privacy
was significantly rolled back, with Google now keeping logs of messages indefinitely (or
until the user deletes messages) in an effort to improve the app's "smart reply" feature.

19. 15) Google Analytics
• Google Analytics is a freemium web analytics service offered by
Google that tracks and reports website traffic, currently as a platform
inside the Google Marketing Platform brand. Google launched the
