If you sit and think about what you Google the most, what is it? If you live in Texas, there are a few searches considered the most embarrassing in the state.

See Spot run? Not quite.

Where would we be without search engines? With so much info at our fingertips, chances are eliminating a site like Google would make the world implode into confusion.

Several Google employees recently swapped their laptops for carving knives and spent the day whittling six enormous pumpkins with the letters of the search engine’s name. The result? The Halloween Google Doodle, of course.

YouTube A bill has passed in Nevada that makes it legal for Google’s fleet of driverless cars to take to the state’s roads. The hope is that in the future, these automated cars could avoid the crashes currently caused by distracted driving. Several companies are already hard at work creating the technology necessary to make it happen.
