Google Exec Hints At Future Open Platform
rsmiller510 writes "At the recent Web 2.0 Summit, Dave Girouard, who is president of Google's enterprise division, stated that his company's long-term goal is to open up the Google development stack to outside developers. If this is true, then it could have some serious long-term implications for developers who could use Google services in new and interesting ways."

On a more serious note, I hate it when they do that. Google is awesome with the things that they do but they can be so hopelessly vague. And while I like that Android/the G1 are more open than most cellphone platforms, it's really not much different from other smartphone platforms like Windows Mobile, with the exception that you can't run native programs on Android (yet). I'm not entirely sure whether their Dalvik VM is optimized enough for this to not matter, and I am most proficient in Java, but it would be nicer to have more options for development on Android.
All your base are belong to Wii.
The planet does not consist of just software.
I see you took the red pill.
