Google Continues Eating the Internet With Google Public DNS It feels like Google is slowly becoming the internet. First, with their twice-as-fast HTTP replacement, SPDY, and now with Google Public DNS, which promises faster DNS lookups and tons of data and cash for Google. Google DNS IP addresses? 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4

CoolGeex Verdict :

I never liked using the ISP’s DNS Server, slow and crashing all the time.

I’m using OpenDNS for a while now, I can also block content using them.

After trying Google DNS Server for 30 Minutes it does look faster, I’ll keep you updated on that.

If you need some extra space for your already big Gmail inbox, or to stash more pictures in Picasa Web Albums, now is the time.

Google just sliced its extra storage prices, offering: 20GB for $5 a Year (Full list of prices in the end of this article)

With this kind of cheap prices you should consider moving your pictures to Picasa.

I just think that it’s another step towards Google Cloud OS.

Prices :

Go is a new Pyton / C++ Programming Language from Google

Google promote it as:

… simple … fast … safe … fun … open source

Here is an example code from golang.org

package main
import "fmt"

func main() {
  fmt.Printf("Hello, 世界\n")
}

If you are a programmer check it out at: Go for it.

Do you really want a Google Wave Invite but don’t want to pay $$$ on eBay???

I got one for you….

The deal is:

I give you an Invitation and once you get it you’re letting me know, then I will forward you 2 email addresses for you to Invite.

I will also send a notice to the other users saying that you are about to invite them.

All you need to do is to “pay it forward”.

I’m going to give 10 Invites myself and manage the process.  If no one breaks the system 1000′s of people will gain from it.

In the 10th level (2^10) 1024 people will get an Invite, the next level is (2^11) 2048.

So Let’s Wave
