When I join Google local guide then first of all I took it just as a fun but later on when I came to know its importance that it will help a lot to the people who commute from one place to another place and/or want to search about a particular place like theatre, restaurant, hotel and other places of tourist interest then I took it seriously and started adding correct information about such places. I was amazed to see the response from people who have been benefited from my info/ reviews etc on Google maps. I also reply to the questions posed by the viewers. I am also very excited to see the mails from the Google about review of my posts by googlers. I also received thanks from the restaurants and hotels about which I have contributed my views. I am also find of traveling and now it has become my hobby to post the information with regard to the tourist places, restaurant, hotels, malls etc. Sometimes the things have already been posted on the Google so I submit my reviews and information about missing gaps. This programme has devey in me an amature photographer by clicking pics of that places and aslo led me to study about good photography. Similarly, it developed in me a researcher & I do research about the places visited by me so that useful information be shared with googlers. After joining this programme, I think a new affinity for travelling has been inculcated in me. I have become a little bit journalist. At present I have worked on the places which have been visited by me due to any reason but now I have decided to visit particular places of tourist attractions particularly the places having religious, socio-cultural importance and put features thereupon for the googlers and others who search google for such places.
I thank Google for providing such a nice plateform to provide correct and useful info to the travellers.
