Life beyond Google

How the world around has changed!In our own life so many changes have transformed our lives so quickly is beyond imagination. In every walk of life, the things have changed mostly for better. I remember when I was in the school, I would tune to the All India Radio’s ‘Forces Request’ and Date With You’ programmes every Monday and Friday to listen to the choicest hits of the Western Music. While in the college, the love continued and the new programmes on the ‘Yuva Vani’ channel continued to satiate my love for the music. As time passed a new music system came to the house and the collection of LP records added to the pleasure. In the meantime, the cassette recorders hit the market and were soon a rage. My cousin returning from Dubai, presented one such cassette recorder and it remained a prized possession for many years to come.The only hassle was with the passage of time the sticking of tape to the recorder head created a mess which was not only irritating but sometimes resulted in the loss of the tapes!As the digital technology evolved, a better quality, high fidelity, low noise music became the norm. CD players,  MP3 players, and memory sticks got popular. By that time, I had started to travel and on a trip to Amsterdam, I picked a  CD player which became a companion for the lean hours playing a soothing music. A ’Blu Ray’ player soon took the place of the CD player and the high-resolution optical disc changed the audio and video experience to a new high. Gone are the times when the speakers were physically connected with wires with the devices like players/mobile phones. Easy connectivity with wifi and blue tooth enabled easy connection with the player.
Things changed forever with the coming in of Google!It would not be incorrect to term the present day world as Before Google( BG) and After Google(AG) era! Google has touched almost every aspect of the human life be it, travel, maps, navigation, all kinds of data and even the world of music.A new storm is currently building up around the VPA( Virtual Private Assistant) for which a huge credit goes to Google. In the present context, it is like a dream come true for a music lover like me!
Bose, the world leader in the music has launched innovative earphones that are future ready. The Google Assistant is built into the headphones that can connect with Android or IOS platforms seamlessly.The best part is while travelling, one need not know the routes of places as the Google Maps can bring you to the doorstep of any place while you are hooked to the pure unadulterated music from the Bose speakers. While the music is streaming in, the built-in features of Google Assistant allow answering the messages, text messages and much more without looking at the screen of the mobile.Also, one is spoilt for choices and options when it comes to excellent features of Noise Cancelling, volume control and utmost comfort that come with the aptly named Quiet Comfort 35(QC-35) headphones!
