Google Prediction
So Google has released an unimpressive new browser. The critics aren’t fawning over it. They say that what Microsoft promises in IE version 8 will be the best browser of the current user. Interesting.
Talk about letting the hill block your view.
Is anyone talking about Google and what they are doing?
Is anyone thinking ahead?
What’s next for Google? What’s next for us?
I read that Google is developing a phone. They purchased YouTube years ago. They have their own browser which integrates with their own office applications online. What’s next?
Someone suggests they are building an operating system. I disagree.
Why? Why would a company like Google need an operating system when their OS is really the Internet. An Operating System has to work on a hard drive. Google doesn’t need a hard drive. They want you on their search engine. That’s where they make their money.
So let’s connect the dots. Google has their own browser which connects to their own media hosted on YouTube and their own office applications. They are producing their own phone/media connection device.
What’s next for Google? Not the question.
What’s next for us?
Why invest in the PC anymore? What do I need a hard drive to hold?
By the way, anyone read PC World’s interview with Bill Gates on his last days at Microsoft? Bill suggested that Microsoft is moving toward the cloud by doing something similar to Apple’s Mobile Me. He is thinking that Microsoft will create a universal place to store a user’s applications and files online for access from mobile devices and computers connecting to the Internet. Oh and the new version of Windows will incorporate tactile response systems.
Inventive? Innovative? Nope. Same old Microsoft.
