  1. Re:There it is! on Google's New Personalized Homepage · · Score: 1

    They won't fill it with flashing, blinking ads...

    But they will fill your life with carefully targeted ads. Google is setting up the best media network ever created and it is being build as the ultimate advertising delivery method. Remember how your email is being scanned for AdSense? Same will happen to your RSS. Personalize your news? They'll have ads for that.

    Whatever Google releases to the public, think about how AdSense can take advantage of it. There is too much money there not too...

  2. Re:case in point on Google Might Disappear in Five Years · · Score: 3, Interesting

    It's a feasible long-term model if they move beyond website placement... Which they're doing right now.

    Google just partnered with a few cell providers to use GoogleMaps and built-in cell GPS and GPRS to move AdSense from the web to the physical world. Theoretically, AdSense now operates within a cell-users physical world. Walk into a pizza shop and an AdSense message will be sent to your phone giving you a coupon for the shop you just walked into, OR telling you a better pizza deal is right down the street.

    Here's where it gets interesting... Retail is all about holding your attention. Think of the advantage AdSense businesses will have if they can literally interupt your shopping in another store. Best Buy can now text you their prices for car stereos the moment you walk into another car audio shop.

    Google Search, Maps, etc... they're all apparatuses for content. This is the killer app that will expand the internet into your lives.

  3. Re:Should have been a criterion all along on Microsoft Developing Windows for Low-End Machines · · Score: 1

    Agreed. However, it makes more sense from a business perspective to not fix current systems but instead release new ones with fixes for the specific problems associated with the last release.

    Similarly, I will be watching this OS simply because I am interested as to how hardware manufacturers respond. When Linux makes reviving old machines practicle and purchasing new ones gratuitous, PC makers might get worried... But when Redmond starts turning their attention to products that consumers already own, there might be some fallout...
