Google's Crazy Lack of Focus: Is It Really Serious About Enterprise?

curtwoodward writes "Driverless cars. Balloon-based wireless networks. Face-mounted computers. Gigabit broadband networks. In recent months, Google has been unveiling a series of transformative side projects that paint a picture of the search pioneer expanding far beyond an online advertising company. At the same time, Google has been trying to convince enterprise software buyers that it's finally, really, truly serious about competing with Microsoft for their business.

i want google to kill EDU

[cheekyboy]

There so much inefficiencies and ripoffs in the edu sector.

Create an AI bot, in 3d, that can teach people, and bingo, you have the same as Star Trek Computer on hand, in 3d + HAL.

Computer, teach me week 17 of Year 7.

But computers are better than humans and could teach years 1 to 12, in 5 years. The k12 sector is so slow and communist in style it would cause millions to be unemployed if google just used 100 engineers to make the EDU killer.
