GOOGLE faces the prospect that as FACEBOOK has gone public and is cashed-up, it will start competing for choice pieces of technology.
Over the last decade, Microsoft and GOOGLE have been the substantial players buying up promising new technology. Sometimes, the purpose was to strategically remove potential competitive threats, sometimes to add function. Now, FACEBOOK is set to become a significant technical rival and potential game changer. Some might say that it already is a game changer, but I don't. It has yet built the Appian Way. FACEBOOK is still a juvenile in development terms (albeit a chubby one). With Money, Corporate emphasis on Profit and cashed up, FACEBOOK will enter the terrible teens and be hungry for growth.
I haven't forgotten APPLE! APPLE are hot on the heels of GOOGLE for revenue. FACEBOOK is a minnow in comparison. APPLE are the current Game Changers because, above all else, they see a new future where the device is not the System. As it happens, MICROSOFT considers it is on the same path. However, it is hard to see a clear vision from MICROSOFT. It seems odd to say this now, but when DOS 6.0 came out it was a milestone. Windows 1.0 was the next big leap and since then, well, it's hard to see the vision from Microsoft.
The real question is does the next big thing come out of a Garage or a Corporation?
My money's on the Garage.
