I am sure all of you know Google and all of its other offerings like the ubiquitous Google Bar (the add on to your browser) and the less known but truly amazing Google Earth (you guys should really check it out, it's really amazing as you can view anywhere int he world from this software, think of it as your own personal satellite).
Earlier this month, Google unveiled the Google Pack at the Consumer Electronics Showcase and I personally think it would be quite useful especially for those who have just formatted their computer and want things to be installed all at one go.
In short, the Google Pack is a downlaod package offered by google which includes the following software from Google :-
- Google Earth
- Picasa (photo organizing software)
- Google Pack Screensaver
- Google Desktop
- Google Toolbar
Besides offering Google stuff, they are including other software which you would need for your typical PC and also to protect your PC. Guess Google's trying to distribute utilities to us then. Some of the note-worthy utilities are :-
- Firefox browser
- Norton Anti-Virus 2005 Special Edition (with 6-months subscription)
- AdAware SE Personal (adware/spyware removal utility)
- Adobe Reader 7
Besides those mentioned there are other non-essential stuff that some may need like a Trillian messenger or Google Talk which you can easily add to the pack.
