If you think Google is just a search engine or a way to advertise your site on the web, you’re really missing out on a lot of their other tools.

Google doesn’t really call them tools, but instead they are called “Products”…free products. Some tools for example help you view thousands of news stories, search for US patents, use an instant messenger, and more. Instead of going over each and every one of them, here is a quick link to Google Products.
