Some of his opinions I can’t agree with.

“Where young people go, older people follow,” Raghavan said.

Yeah, I hate it when grandma sends a bunch of snaps rather than posting to Facebook.

forbes.com/…/what-are-the-most-popular-websites-b…Looking at Forbes’ “Top 25 Websites with the Most Senior Audience”, look at the top sites:

  • conservative101.com
  • freedomdaily.com
  • usherald.com
  • bipartisanreport.com
  • truthexaminer.com
  • thejigsawpuzzles.com
  • westernjournalism.com
  • thefederalistpapers.org

You’re telling me young people drove them there?

So 6-10 years ago, someone’s grandkid said, “Hey, granny, I gotta go. Jimmy just found this amaze-balls puzzle at thejigsawpuzzles.com, and I’m gonna finish it before him.” and that’s how granny found out. /s

“Nobody wakes up every morning and says I have to run a Google query,” Raghavan testified.

No, but during the day I search (duckduckgo) for various issues at work, and at home for all sort of personal information (what’s that restaurant’s menu/phone number?, I need a schematic for washing machine, I even search prices to print a poster at Staples vs. Walmart vs. the UPS Store but used search engines to look at various local options too).

While search engines can provide answers, they can be the conduit to get us to the answers we need (such as how much sodium is in this dish?). I can’t imagine being on the Internet and going a full day without using a search engine at least once.
