I too love Google, and it's tools. Brad's compiled a great Top 50 Google Tools list you may want to read, check out, and/or bookmark for later.

One little caveat before you get too excited: one of my favorite tools, Google 411, was discontinued over a year ago. This was really convenient but apparently just wasn't sustainable (or a priority for Google). I wish there was a good replacement I could recommend.

So I should either find another 50th tool or change the list to Top 49 Google Tools...Enjoy.

I know you'll find some of this information helpful or useful to you and your Business.

Thanks for re-blogging this, Michelle! I honestly wasn't even aware that Google had 50 tools...or 49.

I knew Google had some great tools but I didn't know there were this many.  Bookmarked for later review and hopefully implementation.  Thanks for the great information.

Excellent post Michelle!  I'm a bit embarrassed to say that I hadn't heard of several of these.  I'm bookmarking them now.

Hi Michelle,

I love to read, and through the course of the week, I read articles from 60+ blogs. Now that I've become more active on ActiveRain, that total has increased considerably. I've noticed that there are some very good writers here on AR, and I'd like to help spread the word about those authors.

Each day, I choose an article that appeals to me, and one that I think will appeal to my friends and contacts on facebook, and use my "Share on facebook" button to post it to my facebook wall.

Today, I choose yours. Check it out.

Thanks for the helpful post and Have a GREAT day!
