Googleâs synchronicity
,----[ Quote ]
| On the latest This Week in Google, we talked
| about many of Googleâs product announcements
| and enhancements and though none on its own was
| earthshattering, as we added them up, I started
| to see synchronicity approaching â all the
| moreso last night when TechCrunch reported that
| Googleâs negotiating to buy Yelp.
|
| I see a strategy emerging that has Google
| profoundly improve search by better
| anticipating our intent and then moving past
| search to build hegemony in local and mobile
| (which will come to mean the same thing).
