We at USDemocrazy try not pander to technology (Editors note: except Twitter!!!) but we always love a good gag.
Google Chrome is a relatively new Internet browser that claims to be faster than, well just about anything. Pictured above are several experiments showing just how speedy your Internet could be. (Everyone wants to be able to log on to Facebook faster than a speeding potato)
As veterans of the dial-up days, we appreciate innovations like DSL and Firefox.
We are waiting for the day that information is beamed into our heads at the speed of thought. At this rate, by the time our brains are Internet-ready, a company will come out with a product delivering info at twice the speed of thought.
Of course, Google will probably rule the world by then. They are starting by creating an operating system. That’s right a search engine has evolved into an operating system. It won’t be long before Google is creating planets and stars (of course it will only take them 6 days)
Technology moves so fast it makes me feel old.

Don’t cry for me, China. Google moves its Chinese search engine from the mainland to Hong Kong, ending censorship.

US Democrazy writes on a vast variety of topics. Despite popular beliefs, we are not experts on most of these subjects.
How then, you may ask, do we learn about what we are going to write on? …read more.

Dear Google,
Unlike Sara Bareilles, I would write you a love song. You are my home page, my news source, my fact checker, my everything.
So imagine my surprise when I heard that someone didn’t appreciate you like I do..
That someone is China! China wasn’t too happy when you complained about their heavy handed governing. Now you are threatening to walk out on the country altogether!
Some say that it’s a foolish move, considering that China has hundreds of thousands of web users. But you say that China launched cyber attacks on you, trying to gain access to human rights activists’ Gmail accounts.
I heard that young people came by your office in Beijing to leave notes and flowers by your colorful logo. And who could blame them? I would do the same thing.
I know things are rocky between you and China. But no matter what happens between you and any other country in the world, promise me you won’t leave me, because that would leave me heartbroken.
Love,
America
Michael Steele laughs at Arlen Specter on T.V. Did we just hear a collective “Awwwww…” from the left?
I’ve search your person, you pockets, and your luggage. Now may I have your D.O.B. to make sure you’re not lethal?
Hey Google! Thanks for saving our butts! Love, Twitter.
“Russian Vodka Consumption Shocks Even Russians.” We believe that is enough said.
“It’s on, Google!!!” Microsoft and Yahoo! get together. We read it all on Google News.
Yeah, I tweeted about mold in my apartment. Sue me.
You cheapskates! Time spends just a little for a cover photo.
Who WOULDN'T want this in their home/office?
Shatner does Palin, by reading, of course, her poetic words.
Keep that naughty stuff out, Google!
Obama is controversial on gay rights. He can do neither all good nor all bad.
Mapping viral videos: Not even internet entertainment can escape major analysis.
“One Nation Under Medicare” is a daunting proposition.
And words will hurt the economy…
Let’s talk for a minute about the recession… NO, LET’S NOT! That’s because all this talk of the economics could be damaging to your health!!! (Financial health, that is…)
The crack team at USDemocrazy has noticed that any time an Obama adminstration official starts to talk economics… the stock market screams, runs and hides!
Now the brainiacs at the New York Times have started to wonder if all this talk of America launching into a depression is going to, well, launch America into a depression. Same with the folks at New York Magazine who have dubbed the US economy’s weakened state “The Greatest Depression.” Newsweek is fielding questions on whether or not we are in a depression, and Google yields 68.5 million hits when you type in “Are we in a depression?”
There’s an old saying that goes, the economy is in recession when your neighbor loses his job, but there’s a depression on when you lose your job. Well, maybe if we all hush up about this lousy depression, maybe the economy will just stay in a lousy recession instead.
Okay… maybe this isn’t a good strategy. We at USDemocrazy think it is important to discuss issues like recessions and depressions… (But please don’t blame us if the market starts to fall!)
