The agency that I have observed and I felt that was not only interesting but also has a great relation and a great contribution to our society is Google. This popular agency is not only one giant discourse community but is also a universal search engine for cultures and all societies in the world.
At first viewed Google I didn’t think that was possible for it to have a discourse or even be considered an agency, so I looked up the definition of Agency, ironically on Google, and it states that an agency can be a business that serves other businesses. Letting that settle in brain I realized that Google is considered a businesses and is very helpful for not just a select few businesses but for all and upcoming businesses in the world. Yes Google is well known to be a search engine, but people to fully don’t understand how much Google has grown and become a powerful agency. Viewing Google I have noticed that it has its own originality which gives it its own type of agency. With its different Apps it is make viewing, the weather, news, stocks, videos and many other apps much easier. Something new that Google has now is now they give you the ability to build your own Google website almost like blogger.com but without the blogs. You have the ability to communicate with others thru instant message and e-mailing. You can also add and remove different apps to build your own personal Google website.
As I look further into the Google world I Start to see a two different types discourse communities within their website. The first one is of course there actual website with their multiple genres and, different type’s communication and specialized vocabulary you will have with other Google users. But it’s the second discourse community that I want to focus on. This discourse community is the one that the workers of Google have together. They have goals and genres and even specialized vocabulary which makes this website very interesting. For instance during lunch time at the Google company majority of the workers well all sit down, eat together like a family, in which they will converse and share new ideas about Google. Now I am not part of this discourse but I would assume that they have their own specialized vocabulary due to the fact that workers of Google are considered to be a giant family. As I spiral further into this Colossal of a website I begin to read their corporate information and their Google philosophy I discovered some of their typical genres. Besides the typical ones that are on the website (videos, music, news, shopping, images and many more), the workers of Google are all in their own specific genre. For instance they have their Board of Directors, Operating Committee, Engineers’, sales representatives, and others which all come together to form a whole community. The best thing about this website is the creators of Google make it easy for people to join their agency simply because they prefer ability of experience which give anyone a chance.
Its originality and makes it one of the only agencies of its time. The use of this agency is to spread information to others about pretty much anything that anyone could think of, and is considered to be a building block to many other agencies and companies. I feel that without Google some of the technology and ideas we have now about our society would be unknown and possibly unheard-of. This is a very strong company that I someday I would like to join and be a part of. This agency falls under my communication major and there’s nothing better than doing something you love than doing something you hate. I would love to have a job like this and I hope one day way way in the future I can get a job like this.
In conclusion I hope you enjoyed this wild journey down the road of Google and have a better understanding of what Google is. And now I hope that you don’t see Google as just a search engine; but now as a agency, a business, and a society that is built on fulfilling other peoples goals and dreams.
