Google's Next Step

-

So what next for Google? Microsoft has given an unsolicited bid for Yahoo, obviously vying to replace Google in the various im and allied services sector. Yahoo's taking time, evidently to bargain.
I feel offence is the best defence and Google ought to pay Microsoft in its own coin by taking out an operating system of its own. With already so many cross-platform software in vogue and with Google's own network, it ought not be very tough for Google too. Just think of the range of free software that would come by default with the new o.s.! Picasa, Gtalk, and on and on...
The o.s. can be competitively priced or be accompanied by ads on updates to pay back.
Whatever it may be, I'm looking forward to Google's next step and am very excited about it!

I complete all studies the previous night, of course, till I begin dozing off embarassingly in my chamber! The experience of my new passion is thrilling - overcoming newer and greater weight resistances and reaching new heights ...

Hi folks! Saw Jodha Akbar on Feb 23, Saturday in the '89 Cinemas' (a multiplex near my home). Liked a lot, particularly some sequences like the one where a Sufi song 'Khwaja mere Khwaja' culminates in a trance-like movement of the ascetics singing the devotional song and emperor Akbar (Hrithik Roshan) joins in the movement. It was just wow. A must-see.
