If you read the blog post I wrote not 20 minutes ago, I suggested the CIA may now have some competition with Google owning all its new tools and technology. Wow, I wasn’t mistaken.

Am I the only one thinking this is just ridiculous now!?!?!?!?!

Interesting that these two stories come out within a week of each other. Speculators are driving the oil market, and (I would say) because of that, the prices of fuel-sipping and fuel-hogging vehicles goes up and down as fast as oil.

Good for Black Books. A wise move and necessary in today’s economy.

How many of these do we have to have before we stop overreacting? Apparently at least one more.

Ok, so Google owns the majority of the ad serving market with DCLK, so they know which ads almost any given user has seen and acted on. Now Google wants to own the browser market with Chrome, which would enable them to also know your entire surfing history.

Add that to facial recognition within Picasa, which could be married to their majority share of the video viewing market (GooTube), and now they know who everyone is, when they’re being video’d, which ads they see and click on, and their surfing pattern. Competition should be good for the CIA – inject a little entrepreneurial spirit into the red-taped agency!

What is really likely to happen is, like the old AT&T, Google will be broken up. Not sure you’ll see a PacGoo, SBGoo, NYgle, Goo-itech, and others, but this type of “mwaaahaaahaaa” behavior will not go unnoticed for long.
