I love Google. As a business development consultant and PR professional, I do a lot of internet research for clients and find Google to be a helpful resource. In fact, because its load time is so fast, it is set as the default/home page for my Internet Explorer browser.

This may surprise those of you who know I'm a news junkie who used to have all her favorite news sites on a customized home page. Thanks to modern technology, I now get ALL my news via RSS feeds through Feed Demon.

So why am I telling you this today? My iPod would not turn off when I left the gym this morning. I tried everything - plugging it in, updating from my laptop, "gently tapping" it on the back, but nothing worked, so I did a quick Google search using "ipod won't turn off" and the first link took me to a tech forum with an easy solution (hold the menu and center button down to reset the iPod).

Google gave me a quick way to get an answer to my problem. And it sure beats the old fashioned way (going to the Apple site, entering my search terms, sifting through dozens of irrelevant search results, then picking up the phone and calling Apple only to be put on the interminable hold).
