The Power Of Google In Your Storytelling Journey

How Google can help with your storytelling journey


In a world where we are constantly bombarded with overwhelming information, it is easy to feel lost and uncertain about where to begin. However, Google can be a powerful tool to help you on your storytelling journey.


With over two billion active users, Google is the most popular search engine in the world. And while many people use it simply to find information, it can also be a powerful tool for storytellers.


Using Google's various search tools, you can easily find stories that others have already written about your topic of interest. This can be a wonderful way to fetch ideas and inspiration for your own story. Additionally, you can use Google's "related searches" feature to find more stories about your topic.


Google can also be helpful in the research phase of your storytelling journey. If you start typing in a search term, like “virtual reality,” Google will offer you suggestions for other searches related to the topic.


Google Trends is another helpful tool for exploring topics and viewers’ reactions to them. A search for “fake news” reveals that the term, which had not been used much in the past year, was suddenly a hot topic in late November 2016.


Interest in fake news surged after the election and continued throughout the first months of 2017.


What I am trying to say is obvious: The information is all over the net (especially on Google), and you have to take advantage of it.

How using Google can help you find inspiration and ideas for your story


Google is one of the most effective tools you can use when you’re beginning your storytelling journey. It can help you find inspiration and ideas for your story.


When you’re first starting out, it can be difficult to know where to look for inspiration. Google can help you find story ideas by giving you access to various resources. You can search for your topic's pictures, articles, and videos. This can provide you with a great starting point for developing your own ideas.


You can also use Google to find people who are experts in the field you’re writing about. This can be helpful if you need guidance or want more information about your topic. There are many online forums and groups where you can ask questions and get advice from other writers.


Let's be clear, getting inspiration for your story is just a small part of a bigger puzzle. If you wish to have a well-sharpened knife of story, you will have to work your way out to get it. Ingenious inventions come with hard work. Ask Thomas Edison.


"Genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration."

Developing your story: Using Google tools to help flesh out your story


When it comes to developing your story, Google can be a powerful tool. By doing a simple search, you can find all sorts of information that can help flesh out your story and characters.


For example, say you’re writing a story set in Paris. A short search on Google may bring up images of landmarks and street scenes, which can help you visualize the setting. You can also find information on the history and culture of the city, which can be incorporated into your story.


Google can also be helpful when it comes to developing your character or brand. Say you’re creating a brand that is an expert in selling ancient Greek jewelry. A search on Google Scholar can bring up articles and books on the subject, which can help you make your brand cover story more believable.


Sharing your story: Utilizing Google platforms to share your story with the world.


Your story is your power. It's the thing that puts you apart from everyone else and makes you unique. Sharing your story with the world can be a daunting task. But with Google by your side, you can confidently share your brand or novel story.


Google has a variety of platforms that can help you share your story with the world. Whether you're looking to write a blog, create a website, or make a video, Google has the tools to help you do it. And best of all, they're free!


So what are you waiting for? Chill out, grab a cup of coffee, tea, or scotch (whatever makes you feel like a superhero), and start composing your new story.

Google offers a variety of tools that can be useful for anyone looking to improve their storytelling skills. The search engine can find information on almost any topic, while other useful tools like Google Translate tool can convert text into another language (especially if you're not a native speaker of the language you're aiming for). Further, Google's free tool, Google Docs, is a great way to collaborate with others on a story or document. And of course, there's the ability to easily share your story online through blogs and websites.
