    To take over the world!!!

    You heard it here first. Beware the mighty google.

    First they control the means of searching the internet (google), then the means of communication (gmail), then they control the business of local businesses (gmaps), and now they controls the means of education (gwiki).

    Once they start controlling the means of production (gfarm), its all over!
