The Enigmatic Evolution of Google is Much More Than Just a Search Engine

Hi,

If you considered Google to be just a search engine platform that assisted only SEO executives in their approach then, the firm has proved you wrong and that too a big time. Search engine firm Google much to the aid of web developers has released two new tools, which seeks to ease off the development work load. Google believes that these two releases will not only ease off the work pressure from web developers but will also assist in saving a lot in terms of time thereby, increasing work output.

The first one is named as 'Leak Finder' and as one can make out from the name itself, it is capable of spotting memory leaks in JavaScript code. JavaScript consists of an automated in-built garbage program that removes idle objects that do not have any reference from other working objects in the memory. Sometimes these these objects are retained in the JavaScript and 'Leak Finder' will provide information about these retained objects and assist in removing the same.

The other tool is a Library that has been developed in 'Dart' and is for accessing Google application programming interfaces or Google APIs. Google believes that Dart can prove to be a much better substitute to JavaScript when it comes to authoring complex web applications. Currently, this tool offers access to 35 of Google's API based services with the likes of Google Calendar, Google Plus and even Web Address shortner. With the release of these two tools, the search engine giant is backing it's own belief of promoting open Web Technologies.

Such news may bring delight to web developers but somehow, I feel that Google is really trying to evolve into something, which is much more than a mere search engine firm!

Have a nice day!
