Google has become part of our lives. A website that was launched more than a decade ago has become a major space every internet user can ignore. Google has now moved up from just an ordinary search Engine to become a technology that will no doubt shape the way we do things in this world of smartness and technology.
Google has several applications that can make you even use a system or a smartphone without any other third party software. They have an operation system, applications like Google photos, Google documents, Google plus, Google Hangouts, Google chrome browser, YouTube, Google music, Google maps etc.
Google map is one of my favorite Google application as I often use it to discover new places within my locality, navigate through the town, get hints about places and hangouts and many more. I recently joined the Google Local guide, this is a voluntary work and I love it! As a Local guide, you get to help Google discover new places, give review about places, Post Pictures of new places and many more.
Although you don't get paid for being a Google Local guide but there are several benefits you get from being a Google Local guide.
