Google, incotro?

Un articol interesant despre directia in care se indreapta Google, bazat pe un interviu cu CEO-ul Google, Eric Schmidt. Se pare ca tendinta este de targetare cat mai exacta a utilizatorilor, oferirea de informatii personalizate si desigur, accentul se pune pe cresterea numarului de utilizatori al internetului pe mobil.

Mr. Schmidt says regulation is unnecessary because Google faces such strong incentives to treat its users right, since they will walk away the minute Google does anything with their personal information they find “creepy.”

Really? Some might be skeptical that a user with, say, a thousand photos on Picasa would find it so easy to walk away. Or a guy with 10 years of emails on Gmail. Or a small business owner who has come to rely on Google Docs as an alternative to Microsoft Office. Isn’t stickiness—even slightly extortionate stickiness—what these Google services aim for?
