if you are a king, you have the right to set your own rules and neglect what others may really want or need (or you are so smart you make people unable to realize what they really want or need).

and most of the time we just don’t want a king – king of ‘international information’, aint it a bit scary

I feel that you are afraid of Google being a too sharp knife
Well, Google’s competitive advantage is its “good guy” brand image. They will still try to be a good guy to keep that advantage. If they do something bad, that’s would hurt themselves.

i can’t believe i came back ‘for flight’, again )

I dont see how the knife example represents the problem here. Are u saying knife = Gg? if so, in this case, knife maker = knife user = Gg company.

the internet is by everyone for everyone. Therefore you can’t stop anyone to extract info from the internet, right?
It’s similar to this issue: “should we make a sharper knife?”. Definitely, a sharper knife should be better. “But what if someone use the knife for harmful purposes?” Well, you can see it’s not the knife maker’s fault, but it’s the user’s responsibility

i just think, since Gg knows hell lots about you and your online life, how abt…using that information for their own purposes? Since they monitor nearly ‘the content of the internet’, how abt using that power for their own incentives? say, besides earning money from the huge personal database they own, how abt using it for political/military reasons, manipulating things in the American way of thinking?
Internet is by everyone for everyone, now it’s probably not.
And since because one is so smart, he has the utmost right to control what should be fairly represented by …ok ..big word..mankind?
haha, i know im speaking nonsense. Go find something to fill my stupid stomach now.

Don’t be so jealous, woman =))
If you want a piece of the cake, just do something innovative.

The internet should not be controlled solely by Google. Evilness should be shared!

BTW, actually the winner won’t get $10M as you expected
Google will only help you to implement your idea

Thanks JayP
Actually Google is even far more evil than M$.
Google knows all the rules and knows exactly when and how to break them. “Words of mouth” is Google’s favorite way, and Google is the only one who knows how powerful this method is.

Last week, I read an interesting article in Tuoi tre newspaper about Google’s project 10 to 100. They’ve collected all ideas from different people. The winner is who has an idea having influence on as many people as possible. Actually, I am trying to finish my work before deathline to get $10 million. Nothing is impossible, isn’t it? The way Google doing is remarkable!
My first assignment related to Microsoft. Since Ballmer became the company’s CEO, he’s changed Microsoft competely, especially on structure and culture. He wants people working together, share ideas, etc. But it is still ‘inside’ the company!
Google tends to be more open-minded than Microsoft.
Microsoft informed that they looked like David while Google were Gorliath in search engine…
Bravo, Google!
