...Google knows what people write about, what they search for, what they shop for, they know who wants to advertise and how effective those advertisements are, and they're about to know how we communicate with friends and loved onesFull story
...Google isn't worried about Yahoo! or Microsoft's search efforts...although the media's focus on that is probably to their advantage. Their real target is Windows. Who needs Windows when anyone can have free unlimited access to the world's fastest computer running the smartest operating system? Mobile devices don't need big, bloated OSes...they'll be perfect platforms for accessing the GooOS. Using Gnome and Linux as a starting point, Google should design an OS for desktop computers that's modified to use the GooOS and sell it right alongside Windows ($200) at CompUSA for $10/apiece (available free online of course). Google Office (Goffice?) will be built in, with all your data stored locally, backed up remotely, and available to whomever it needs to be (SubEthaEdit-style collaboration on Word/Excel/PowerPoint-esque documents is only the beginning). Email, shopping, games, music, news, personal publishing, etc.; all the stuff that people use their computers for, it's all there...
... I predict Google will be the biggest and most important company in the world in 5-8 years...
As Roman Stanek wrote [czech]:
... Thomas J. Watson supposed to said in 1943 there is a market for five computers in a whole world. We laughed to this lack of vision for sixty years but "he who laughs last laughs best". Let's count how much of them there will be in five years: 1. Google, 2. Yahoo!, 3. Amazon.com, 4. eBay, 5. MSN/Hotmail...
Maybe we should really buy some GOOGs... :-)
