Google X | Dock User Interface Search

Google is known as the king of search engines. Ever since Google launched back in 1995 it has been improving searching capabilities, known to try out everything to give user a better searching solution. One such effort was Google X which not so many people know. Let’s have a look at Google X’s inside story. Google X was a project launched by Google Labs on March 15, 2005 and was rescinded the next day it launched. It was made on the basis of Dock User Interface (a way of launching, switching between the interfaces of application). It was made on the concept of Apple’s Mac OS which uses Dock User Interface approach.

[ Google ] - Experiment Gravity

As Google is doing many new experiments with its products, it also did some of very entrusting experiments for user. The Back to All267 of 279 Prev | Next Google Gravity, sounds like more science fiction then of search engine's application. As of my thoughts I can say Google has tried to create an environment of work and play. So you Couldn't get bored of while working.

Theme idea was adopted from the old saying of "George Burns" ;

"Everything that goes up must come down. But there comes a time when not everything that's down can come up."
