Google is the new Microsoft (in terms of yet another corporation with world domination plans). One day there will be the Google computer, the Google automobile, Google Airlines/Google Travel, Google fine jewelry, Google tampons and Google viagra.
Google has taken (and will take) the mantra "expand or die" to the next level. They're more selfish than Steve Balmer and more self-absorbed than Steve Jobs.

I like it so far but have no reason to switch from Firefox.
There seems to be some sort of issue with it's JS implementation that causes it just eat clock cycles (38% cpu usage) in one part of our app (not an issue in any other browser).

A few more releases and I'll probably end up switching.

If they support extensions I will switch. I didn't really like the layout at first (tabs on the top), but it gives you back a bit of screen real estate.

But I bet that everything is connected behind the scene to conceal monopoly, namely a domination by someone or specific families.
I mean that Google is nothing more than a part of the giant slime which may be called capitalist union, so is M$.
Actually it doesn't really matter unless it does harm in my life via pirates of the s0uthern chinese.

Which means that google has the right to check, look at, mark, filter, refuse or remove content. Seems far less drastical than your text, especially since later on there's a disclaimer:Google behoudt zich het recht voor (maar is niet verplicht) om sommige of alle Inhoud van een Service vooraf te controleren, te bekijken, te markeren, te filteren, te wijzigen, te weigeren of te verwijderen.
Basically means they won't seek to own intellectual property of any data you send.Met uitzondering van de beperkte licentie die wordt beschreven in Artikel 11, erkent en stemt Google ermee in op grond van deze Voorwaarden geen rechten, aanspraken of belangen aangaande enige Inhoud van u (of uw licentiegevers) te verkrijgen die u door of via de Services verstrekt, publiceert, verstuurt of weergeeft, met inbegrip van eventuele intellectuele-eigendomsrechten die verbonden zijn aan die Inhoud (ongeacht of deze rechten al dan niet zijn geregistreerd en waar ter wereld deze rechten ook van kracht zijn).

i cant wait to see a finished product, so now there will be Three choices to choose from when you want to get a smart phone again. ( considering Palm went to windows mobile )
