Google already controls too much and already 'reads' our e-mail. This is just another thing that they want control of. It's obvious that they want to be the new Microsoft; they're just doing from an internet-centric base.

Google office doesn't sound overly threatening yet. MS Office is a great software package.

What do you mean read email? They view gmail accounts?
Google Earth concerns me. Seems to be upsetting a lot of governments too and so it should.

I've also started to use MSN Search, just to compare the results. I must say that google brings up a lot of 'spam' as MSN brings up more valid results. Go on, try it!

But personally I don't like search engines, directories are SO much better, when organised correctly ;)

A year ago, everybody thought that Flash would be the way...now it's Ajax. Check out the presentations.

Now people think pocket pcs and mobile phones will be the way to go. So flash is out since you can not view it on those devices.

Are these the same people who said we'd all live under the sea and drive flying cars by now?

I see no need for a pocket pc... I don't wear pants and don't go outside... neighbours complain, that sort of thing *cough
