I saw this video couple of weeks ago "Introduction to reCaptcha", which is really a kind of invention to save the time of humanity and use it for positive purposes. I was really impressed to see how Google is researching to save the time.
Today, I was watching a video on YouTube which was shared by my friend on Facebook. After a couple of clips, I don't know how I got onto a video which was really crap. There was no real purpose of that video and still there were 1000's of views (Sorry I don't want to name the video). When I saw the “related videos” section, there were many other kids doing the same thing with the same title.
Then I came to realize, how I open YouTube sometimes and then I get myself into some kind of endless addiction of watching videos. I started counting how many videos I have watched on YouTube which had no purpose at all but they were just wastage of time. Millions of those videos are just A LITTLE BIT fun only. There are many other videos which are just time wastage and still thousands of people watching them. There is no positive thing that we can learn out of them to serve humanity or even to learn something good. And then on top of all, Google pays them for making such crappy videos.
I am not sure why Google doesn't have some kind of idiot filtering policy for YouTube videos. Millions of people around the world are wasting their bandwidth and paying ISPs to see that crap and then there are thousands others who are posting such things every day. Google is supporting the whole process to make money from YouTube by serving more and more ads. Isn't it against Google's "do no evil" policy?
I am really a big FAN of Google and I am not writing these posts to prove them wrong or something. But I just want them to improve their services and learn from the feedback. That is why, I wrote a blog post to share my thoughts about Google supporting spam on the internet.
I really like the new technologies emerging into life so fastly.
New internet trends & social networking sites are emerging into life so fast that nobody even realizes the side effects of such things. How many of
