Be Prepared To Sell Your Soul If You Use Google

January 27, 2012

Yes, I admit I use Google (GOOG) products. Much has recently been written about the new privacy policy from Google. The discussion in media did not bother me as I thought I would easily deal with privacy issues. Then I, too, received my Dear Google User email. The email starts out by claiming it is about privacy. The email itself is benign, however buried in the links is a bomb. Now Google has made it mandatory for you to sell your soul to Google if you want to use its products. I am not referring to soul in the religious

‘Don’t Be Evil’ Gives Google Possible Antitrust Cover

January 24, 2012

In my article, ‘œGoogle’s Brilliant New Weapon To Fight Facebook,’ I described Google’s new weapon ‘œSearch plus Your World’. Search plus Your World changed Google’s ranking in its search results. Google started emphasizing results from Google+ social network at the expense of Facebook and Twitter. Now a few engineers from Facebook led by Blake Ross, Facebook’s product director and co-founder of Firefox, along with engineers from Twitter and MySpace, are responding with a new tool called ‘˜Don’t Be Evil.’ The name Don’t Be Evil is a fairly deliberate dig at Google’s tag line. The engineers asked how much better

3 Real Reasons for Google Stock Drop
