Taking Another Break
We've come to the end of the second part. Throughout this segment we covered Google Maps and Earth, News and Archive, and Blogger and Picasa. You should be familiar with these services and I think that you're really anticipating the final part of this series.
Now that we have finished describing these chosen services, as we promised, we're going to discuss the phenomenal contributions of Google to human kind, their overall involvement in numerous challenging projects, and we can't forget about trying to foresee the future. As always there's a lot happening at Google!
During this and the previous article we focused mostly on online services and desktop applications, but Google is more than that. It's a company giant that controls the largest amount of fiber optics, therefore it is able to ship and install a data center anywhere in the world with fiber optics. Google redefines our world. But it's even more!
Throughout the upcoming segment we are going to clarify some of the widely spread rumors. What about the Open Handset Alliance and the Google Phone, aka GPhone? What's up with them? What kind of potential impact could these phones have once released on the market? What about the competitors? Yes, Apple's iPhone...
Last but definitely not least, I'm sure you've also heard about Brad Fitzpatrick, founder of Live Journal and chief-architect of Six Apart. Well, right now he works for Google. Isn't it a coincidence that now people are talking about the possibility of Google developing a set of APIs that could manipulate the social graph and link together all of the social networking sites? Can we connect the dots? Social graph?!
And then, what's the most challenging yet fabulously promising project at the same time, which could affect all of human kind? Stick around and you'll find out!
