Try it...
It would be interesting to discuss the rise and success of Google (NASDAQ:GOOG) with Herbert Marcuse. Marcuse wrote One-Dimensional Man. Google is the world's largest media company as measured in advertising revenue. Are we trapped more one-dimensionally than ever, or is it working?

Google will extend its advertising reach into the mobile, display and video sectors by improving relevancy and efficiency. A large and untapped market for Google is in the cloud. If the cloud is to IT spend what the Internet is to advertising spending, Google has significant runway in that market. Many of Google’s investments focus and will focus on accessing the cloud, making applications quick and powerful, and giving the user an experience as rich as if they were working locally. By launching the Chrome platform, Google will allow for the development of richer Web applications that, in turn, will attract more users and drive more Web usage. Ultimately, this chain of events will generate more self-selected advertising at the consumer end and possibly more [software as a service] revenue at the enterprise end.
That seems like less unfreedom to me. ;)
G'day Christa. That's rubbish. Who will see the sky through the clouds? iPod :)

Thanks Christa and we agree.
To be a pod or not, that's the question.
Apple has created a brand that drives a choice without one being made. That said, if there was a better player there might be better options, but with iTunes, the iPhone and me.com it is hard to find a more complete and easy to use offering.

If Sun and IBM are one, there will be many more interesting mashups of technology and people.

I still remember Altavista. If DEC had any clue about turning the success of it's search engine into money, they would still exist as an own powerful company.
Maybe we would use Alpha powerded PCs today.
It's a strange world, where web2.0 companies, owning some CGI scripts as IP, grows to million heavy industries, more worth than automotive companies produce non virtual products.
