If they are smart they can use the information acquired from knowing what websites people visit to help with there PageRank system. They would now be able to record how much traffic a site gets and throw that into their PageRank equation to yield more accurate results.
Non Working Mirror of Page but it has a zip of all the files you need to run it locally, works too so I can still use it as my homepage.

I hate double posting but it just occured to me that I need to make an obligatory reference to the ramifacations of these developments in terms of malicious applications. Think about a computer with a virus and then attaching that directly to your brain. Scary.
When this is refined it can change the way games are played in general. No longer will games be about who has the best hand-eye coordination. Rather they will be about who can think the smartest and fastest. We may end up calling any form of gaming that requires movement or manipulation of physical controls old-school.
Combining this with that story that Bittorrent accounts for 35% of internet usage and the most active torrent pupose seems to be downloading tv episodes. Maybe people are still watching and just not on TV itself.
Many popular distributions incorporate very little GUI and are mostly command line based. This has its advantages for those user but are not friendly to others.
I am not a linux guru but from the perspective of the average person go with something that has a simple GUI interface. All that fancy commandline stuff scares people.
