Intro to Google for the Hill
Introduction to A company built on search Our mission Google’s mission is to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful. As a ﬁrst step to fulﬁlling this mission, Google’s founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin developed a new approach to online search that took root in a Stanford University dorm room and quickly spread to information seekers around the globe. The Google search engine is an easy-to-use, free service that consistently returns relevant results in a fraction of a second. What we do Google is more than a search engine. We also offer Gmail, maps, personal blogging, and web-based word processing products to name just a few. YouTube, the popular online video service, is part of Google as well. Most of Google’s services are free, so how do we make money? Much of Google’s revenue comes through our AdWords advertising program, which allows businesses to place small “sponsored links” alongside our search results. Prices for these ads are set by competitive auctions for every search term where advertisers want their ads to appear. We don’t sell placement in the search results themselves, or allow people to pay for a higher ranking there. In addition, website managers and publishers take advantage of our AdSense advertising program to deliver ads on their sites. This program generates billions of dollars in revenue each year for hundreds of thousands of websites, and is a major source of funding for the free content available across the web. Google also offers enterprise versions of our consumer products for businesses, organizations, and government entities.

Notes on Chromebooks and Neverware Cloudready Chromium
Chromebooks Are For Seniors - Ron Brown - APCUG VTC - 8-19-17 https://youtu.be/4uszFPNL-SU http://cb4s.net/ Are Chromebooks more secure than laptops? Google’s security features in ChromeOS When Google set about designing ChromeOS it had the distinct advantage of being able to see the problems that Windows, macOS, and even Linux had struggled with when it came to security. With this in mind it implemented five key features that make ChromeOS a formidable system for hackers to crack. Automatic Updates As new threats become known, it’s vital that patches are applied quickly to thwart them. Google has an excellent track record on this, as not only does it release fixes on a very regular basis, but with Chromebooks guaranteed OS updates for seven years after release, the majority of users are running the most up to date version anyway. his can be an issue on other platforms, where differing combinations of OS versions and hardware can delay patches. Sandboxing If something does go wrong, and malware gets onto a Chromebook, there’s not much damage it can do. Each tab in ChromeOS acts as a separate entity with a restricted environment or ‘sandbox’. This means that only the affected tab is vulnerable, and that it is very difficult for the infection to spread to other areas of the machine. In Windows and macOS the malware is usually installed somewhere on the system itself, which makes it a threat with a much wider scope. There are ways to restrict this of course, with anti-virus software, regular system scans, and not running as an administrator.

GOOGLE LLC V. ORACLE AMERICA, INC
(Slip Opinion) OCTOBER TERM, 2020 1 Syllabus NOTE: Where it is feasible, a syllabus (headnote) will be released, as is being done in connection with this case, at the time the opinion is issued. The syllabus constitutes no part of the opinion of the Court but has been prepared by the Reporter of Decisions for the convenience of the reader. See United States v. Detroit Timber & Lumber Co., 200 U. S. 321, 337. SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES Syllabus GOOGLE LLC v. ORACLE AMERICA, INC. CERTIORARI TO THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FEDERAL CIRCUIT No. 18–956. Argued October 7, 2020—Decided April 5, 2021 Oracle America, Inc., owns a copyright in Java SE, a computer platform that uses the popular Java computer programming language. In 2005, Google acquired Android and sought to build a new software platform for mobile devices. To allow the millions of programmers familiar with the Java programming language to work with its new Android plat- form, Google copied roughly 11,500 lines of code from the Java SE pro- gram. The copied lines are part of a tool called an Application Pro- gramming Interface (API). An API allows programmers to call upon prewritten computing tasks for use in their own programs. Over the course of protracted litigation, the lower courts have considered (1) whether Java SE’s owner could copyright the copied lines from the API, and (2) if so, whether Google’s copying constituted a permissible “fair use” of that material freeing Google from copyright liability. In the proceedings below, the Federal Circuit held that the copied lines are copyrightable.

What Is Google Classroom? Google Classroom Is a Class-Organization
What is Google Classroom? Google Classroom is a class-organization platform that incorporates Google's core G Suite (Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, Drive, and other Google products) so students can access everything they need for a class, including assignments, projects, and files. Can my child use a mobile device or tablet to access Google classroom? Absolutely. Like all the other Google apps available, your student can access the full functionality of Google Classroom from virtually any device. How tech savvy do I need to be to help my kid with Google Classroom? If your kids are younger, it's probably a good idea to have some familiarity with Google's G Suite so you can help your kid upload documents, check the calendar, and do other tasks. It also helps to know how the programs work so you can at least describe the problem to a teacher if anything goes wrong. Older kids may not need any help. Google Classroom is designed to be easy to use, and there's lots of online help. How do we get started? The process for setting up your child's account is pretty simple. BCCS sets up the classrooms and invites all students to the right classes. All they have to do is accept the invite. Your child can get into their classroom anytime by going to classroom.google.com. Students may have multiple classrooms for different classes. From their dashboard, they can choose the class they want to view. Once they enter a classroom, students find four tabs at the top of the page.

Advanced Search Options
ADVANCED SEARCH OPTIONS Even the most powerful search engine requires a bit of fine-tuning. To enhance your Google search, try the following options: Phrase Searches Search for complete phrases by enclosing them in quotation marks. Words enclosed in double quotes ("like this") appear together in all results exactly as you have entered them. Phrase searches are especially useful for finding famous sayings or proper names. Category Searches The Google Web Directory (located at directory.google.com) is a good place to start if you're not sure exactly what terms to use. A directory can also eliminate unwanted results from your search. For example, searching for "Saturn" within the Science > Astronomy category of the Google Web Directory returns only Google supports several advanced operators. Many are pages about the planet Saturn, while searching for "Saturn" accessible from the Google advanced search page. within the Automotive category of the Google Web Directory returns only pages about Saturn cars.

To use Google Search, all you have to do is type, click and wait.
