| Category: GOOG GOOG is the NASDAQ ticker symbol for Google. Useful fact, that. The extraordinary news from Goog is that they have moved something out of beta. The desktop search is now considered a real one! This from the article: Jonathan Spira of Basex told TechNewsWorld that Google is eager to keep its competition, particularly Microsoft, from establishing mind and market share in desktop search. Microsoft has indicated it plans to include combined Internet and desktop search in Longhorn, its next-generation Windows operating system.I may be wrong but I understood that this stuff doesn't differ dramatically from that Shylock thing that the Macintosh has had forever. Is that right, DB? Could Microsoft and the GOOG both be claiming credit for the horseless carriage? |
