In the vast void of what is know today as the Internet, there are stories of men and women that after the sheer thought of defeat, give up their efforts to create an adequate amount of income as a web worker. Well no one ever said it’s easy. What happened to no pain no game?
The years bring on changes. In the old days there were salesmen and saleswomen who would do the door to door routine in order to sell something. Now we have eBay. In the old days there were paperboys on paper routes throwing newspapers all over the place, now we have the internet with thousands of newspaper articles. There was a time when people would have to actually get a degree, graduate, build a resume, go job hunting, get hired, please your boss, don’t be late, be part of the rat race, and eventually retire. Now there are bloggers!
Of course there are those that do not live in the current year and cannot easily see this change in our working careers. As John Evans once said, ” The Internet is like a giant jellyfish. You can’t step on it. You can’t go around it. You’ve got to get through it.“
Microsoft may be unmatched in computer software, but who is dominating the scene on the world wide web? Well, unless you’ve been living under a rock on an Island of the shores of Antarctica, Google is! The company which started as a research project back in January of 1996 and what used to be called, “Backrub,” is clearly becoming the web’s most dominating company. Their HQ, named “Googleplex,” is located in Mountain View, California and has been voted by Forbes as the Number 1 company to work for in January 2007.
The company is clearly dominating the web. Think about it, they basically store all of the Internet’s Content on their servers. In other words they could, in theory, have a copy of the internet’s content. Mix that with their advertisement power and who knows when they will surpass Microsoft. Which brings us to the question of the day. When will Google surpass Microsoft? Watch a video about Google’s Power in the Video Section.

For every type of website, blog, or forum there exist a specific type of hosting service. There are full featured web hosting services which, for the advanced user, allows the site to run advanced features (scripts) such as PHP, Java, and Ajax just to mention a few. Of course for people who just want a hobby site, there are services to cover those needs as well, although the functionality of the site will be strictly limited. There are even more specific hosting services for those that want a blog (Blogger), upload images (Imageshack) or videos (YouTube), install a shopping cart, or even host a game server (WOW).
