Thinking in Google

I've found it interesting lately how if I come across a topic that I need to research or find more information then my brain automatically begins to think in keywords for a Google search.

This leads me to think back as to what it was like before Google existed. As a software engineer, it used to be far more difficult to obtain useful samples or information for issues with code. One tended to rely on everything provided by a vendor for documentation and if a topic was not covered or not covered well, then it was highly difficult to obtain good information. This goes back to the days of CompuServe forums for me.
