Microsoft flexing muscle???, by Deleted on Feb 1, 2008 18:41:58 GMT 1, If google does anything, it will be more akin to the old slave/master Sun model as opposed to the local client/install model. As Scott McNeally once said...The Network is the Computer. My random predictions for 2008:
1) Microsoft will buy Yahoo at a slightly higher price
2) Google will have resounding success with Android and convince the new owner of Motorola's old handset unit to commit to a 2009 mass market phone. Ver 1.0 will be for people who can't afford an iPhone.
3) OpenSocial will drive a surge in mashups that do more traffic than the original platform sites/partners (e.g. Myspace). A new advertising model will emerge for syndicators of original content.
4) Google will hit $700 in the summertime
5) Google will make it's server OS available via OpenSource by Fall 2008 to enable cloud computing. this will be way before any desktop/pc product offering
6) other mobile companies will make XHTML a priority in new handset design to align with Google's definition of the mobile internet
7) Google analytics for mobile will launch in 2Q08
8) Apple will get into game publishing by 3Q08
I like Google by the way...

IMO google is fighting the system doing there own OS when fully open CentOS, Fedora etc are out and companies like Suse and RedHat do it for a living. IMO I find it VERY hard to believe that Google is going to create something worth while and people will take to. If they were smart they would buy Apple and whore out OSX ;D

Microsoft flexing muscle???, by Deleted on Feb 1, 2008 22:01:38 GMT 1, i'm sure there are others than can explain it better than I, but basically imagine if you have a program on your computer that needs a lot of processing power. You network your computer with another one (or in theory as many as you want) so that the other computer can "help out" during its downtime. If you had a lot of networked computers working on the same problem/program, you would be finished faster. cloud computing...
