Do You Know #1: Problem At Google And Facebook’s Backyard

Once again, welcome to Chromigos.com! I know it's been quite long time since I scribed something on this blog. Well, frankly I was just being lazy at some point and the deactivation of my AdSense account might be another reason. Anyways, earning some bucks from this blog hardly matters me. This is my own blog and my own way to express whatever I've learnt, and I believe I can definitely find some other avenues to earn some bucks, if I need to. Starting off today I have some good plans of posting some cool stuff here on this blog. What are they, eh? Let's check 'em out!

I'm sure you can discover "something new" in the title, at least in its first part. "Do you know" ..? Gotcha! Starting today, we'll have another new section called "Do you know" or simply "DUK" to discover the things which are barely visible. Cool, right?! I'm looking forward to receive your feedback on this. OK, enough of its information. Let's come to the point!


I found a video that uncovers the reality happening around some of the biggest Silicon Valley based companies like Microsoft, Facebook, Google, HP, and many more. We usually get to see the only  side of the coin, but do we ever flip it to discover its other side? The companies, perhaps I'd call 'em "the money makers" or "the big fellas", are they really unaware about the poverty growing around them?

It's time to find out why people moved to Silicon Valley, and listen to their heartbreaking story ...

Hi Pratyush. I'm not particularly talking about their headquarters. Microsoft has its office in Mountain View also.
