Google Isn’t A Monopoly If Consumers Choose Speed Over Options

While the Federal Trade Commission absolved Google of monopoly accusations earlier today for prioritizing its own products in search results, it’s questionable whether the search giant can ever be considered a monopoly, if consumers continue to rely on Google to offer up solutions without the inconvenience of comparison shopping other services. There’s countless review websites to help me choose the best restaurants, a handful of map applications to give me the quickest driving directions, and a litany of coupon search engines to find me the cheapest price. http://techcrunch.com/2013/01/03/google-isnt-a-monopoly-if-consumers-choose-speed-over-options/

Google Plus vs. Facebook: Who's Winning?

By Susan Mayes Ostrander | The Daily Muse There’s a hot new social media contender in town: She’s just shy of three months old and already boasts more than 25 million users -- the fastest growing platform of her kind. She possesses all of the bells and whistles of her competitors, plus a few cool surprises of her own. World, meet Google Plus. Still in beta, Google Plus (or G+ for short) is the search engine giant’s latest attempt at social networking dominance (and the successor to its similarly-veined -- but failed -- ventures, Google Wave and Google Buzz). http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/09/20/google-vs-facebook_n_972080.html

How Google's Self-Driving Car Works

Once a secret project, Google's autonomous vehicles are now out in the open, quite literally, with the company test-driving them on public roads and, on one occasion, even inviting people to ride inside one of the robot cars as it raced around a closed course . Google's fleet of robotic Toyota Priuses has now logged more than 190,000 miles (about 300,000 kilometers), driving in city traffic, busy highways, and mountainous roads with only occasional human intervention. The project is still far from becoming commercially viable, but Google has set up a demonstration system on its campus, using driverless golf carts, which points to how the technology could change transportation even in the near future. Stanford University professor Sebastian Thrun, who guides the project, and Google engineer Chris Urmson discussed these and other details in a keynote speech at the IEEE International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems in San Francisco last month. http://spectrum.ieee.org/automaton/robotics/artificial-intelligence/how-google-self-driving-car-works

Dart – will Google make HTML5 applications viable? | Colin Eberhardt

Just a few weeks ago I wrote a blogpost “Can Microsoft ‘fix’ JavaScript and make HTML5 applications viable?” , where I described some of the issues with JavaScript and how these could be solved by Microsoft if they wrote a C# to JavaScript compiler. Just a couple of days ago it was announced that Google have been working on a new language that they hope will replace JavaScript and its deficiencies. This new language is called ‘Dart’. To briefly recap my earlier blogpost; HTML5 is causing a lot of buzz at the moment, proving itself to be a serious threat to Silverlight and Flash / Flex.
