Sometimes I feel like I am the only fan left of Google alive. It's a lonely life.

No, but I've heard about it. It looks really cool, I'm just not ready to make the transition to something like that. Considering my home, cell, and work number are all currently my cell phone number, there really isn't much of a point for it.

If it 'catches on' like many of their products have I bet in ten years Microsoft will be nothing more than an Xbox.
yeah im pretty sure that wont happen...

Dudez, don't forget about Google Wave. That's going to hit the nail right on the head, and commence the world domination. For those of you who don't know, here is a link.

December 21st, 2012, the day the world ends, not because of Nirubu no, but because of Google making their own console the Google ChromeBox

I'm looking forward to seeing what google has coming.... I'm hoping they go bankrupt and lose all their money except for the money they need to run their website

google.com

you know the search engine, the reason people like google, the reason they have all that money, cause lots of people use it, and they get lots of add money... But their not happy to just pay their workers extra money, nooooo, they gotta spend it all on OSs and email sites, and the like...

I blame google for the economy's state!

Don't you think it'd be like Internet America? Capitalism (advertising! yay!) and randomly taking over other peoples' places, or "installing" new leaders to existing places (youtube).
:P

I dunno, I don't think Google is bad like Hitler :P

At first, I thought that google wouldn't be able to pull this off, but now I'm thinking otherwise. I mean, when google trys to compete with microsoft, it will be a massacre, unless they put it on the netbook or something (which i believe someone said they were going to do). Idk, this will be interesting.

I'm thinking it would be easy to hack... lets say that you turn it on and get to the password screen. It will either have a dropdown of your passwords, or if you misspell it it will say "Did you mean 'stillAVirgin69'"? lol, jk

I will just wait and see what happens

Sounds just like what people said to Microsoft in their baby years, IBM was the one in the PC industry then Microsoft soon over came IBM.
