Wreck of the Titan or FUTILITY, A book written about Titanic before it sank

There was actually a book written about the sinking of the Titanic, 14 years before it actually sank.

Futility, or the Wreck of the Titan is an 1898 novella written by Morgan Robertson. He was an author with a passion for the sea. In a 1905 review of his work, THE NEW YORK TIMES referred to Mr. Robertson admiringly as the “Kipling of the Sea” .The story features the ocean liner Titan, which sinks in the North Atlantic after striking an iceberg. The Titan and its sinking have been noted to be very similar to the real-life passenger ship RMS Titanic, which sank fourteen years later. Following the wreck the novel was reissued with some changes, particularly in the ship's gross tonnage.

In 1912, the publisher hastily repackaged the book and retitled it “FUTILITY, OR THE WRECK OF THE TITAN.” In the wake of the real-life tragedy, the book was a sudden hit, and the biggest success of Mr. Robertson’s career. Mr. Robertson died just a few years later on March 24, 1915.

What if, there was no Google.....

Can you imagine what the world would be like if Google didn't exist? Or even better, the correct question should be where the world would be if Google was not there.

It's hard to say exactly how the world would look without Google,which is the world's most frequently visited Web site.. May be everyone would go back to libraries and encyclopedias to get the required information , they would remember the routes or find out the address asking people who comes on the way..
