What Google did next for you
,----[ Quote ]
| Another reason is that Google Gears very intelligently gets the Open
| Source community of worldwide developers get involved in a guerrilla
| war of sorts against Microsoft in the technology industry.
|
| This further helps Google in terms of getting more innovation
| through individual and joint developer efforts, distributed
| computing, moving applications towards a single standard for
| offline capabilities. You could say Google is a wannabe giant
| backing the underdogs against an entrenched giant.

U.S. healthcare industry: Google wants to protect you from Michael Moore’s
Sicko
,----[ Quote ]
| Taking a break from reading the wall-to-wall iPhone coverage on TechMeme,
| I ran across a post from Lauren Turner, who works for Google as an
| account planner selling ads to the healthcare industry. In the post
| on what is called the Google Health Advertising blog, but only
| contains two posts, she assures potential advertisers that Google
| can help protect them from the negative impact of Michael Moore’s
| just released film “Sicko,” which does to the U.S healthcare system
| what Fahrenheit 9/11 did to the Bush administration.
