My dependence on Google kind of scares me a bit. I don't just use it for search, it's my calculator, converter (currency, temperature, etc.) and many more things.
And even if I chose to do those things manually (such as temperature conversion) - I could only think of going to google first to get the formula. I'm just glad Google is there to make my life easier.
It's my search engine, calculator, converter, stock-quote-checker, e-mail client, word processor, spreadsheet, chat client lately, local business directory, atlas, and employer. Hrmm. That makes it far more dominant than Microsoft ever was...
