Google Video would be better if it had higher quality video... kinda sucky right now.

Google impresses me more and more every day. The only thing that really sucks about Google is that they dont have any games.

Games? Please explain.

chess, poker, a chat room, blablabla. My kids and I always use Goggle search ,but then we will end up at Yahoo to play some games.

Somehow, that just doesn't seem like Google's style.

It would bve a great place for advertisement,and draw even more people into the Googler. Lets say my wife is sitting in the passanger seat of the van(with her phone) and wants to play a game with our oldest girl while shes on the labtop.Then they would be able to go to the googler. A place where everyone can connect to play their games anywhere.

Enough Google already.

Did you actually look at the videos? They are very, very neat and a lot more interesting than content other video sites are putting up. This is a very smart idea, and could prove very useful for students.

Yes I actually did.

Google has their hands in too much stuff. I want no part of anything Google.

Google is going to become a problem for many people in the future. Trust me ;)

SM:

Google has their hands in too many things, but having a dominant player who leads the way in dictating open and/or dominant universal standards has got to greatly improve the life of the average person here: Too many competitors and non-dominant + proprietary standards have left the mainstream user far behind parts of Asia & Europe re modern technologies at their disposal.

And I remember pre-Google days-- the then-low standards of Yahoo & MSN searches...Alexa, Gator...

btw Google's just as concerned as you, so they're basically building their own internet & adding the option to shift their data among several locations worldwide: it will take the direct, concerted & united efforts of many world governments to even have a chance at getting to them...
I'd be more worried about rebelling against and fixing those very governments instead-- NOT Google: more is given up about us by any ISP, utility co, credit agency, bank, broker, salesperson, teller, casino/book, etc. They're are all required to keep minutious records in order to readily give them up with only a request on letterhead. How 'bout the law requiring any teller/salesperson to report to Big Brother any transaction as low as 2K that could be being used for drugs & laundering, not just terror? That is mandated for everyone in the fields of jewelry, antiquities, luxury items, finance/investing, etc. And how about getting raided over a poker or Super Bowl bet?

BTW the IRS commissioner just stated that they will be focusing on returns for households reporting 100K or more in a year-- two incomes + any asset sale or investment fund gain-- puts just about everyone in their crosshairs, when combined w/ a piddly 2K deposited into a bank or brokerage account, used to purchase jewelry, insurance or whatnot being reported to them.

All fish will be getting reeled in: big, medium, small.....

Too many or our ancestors painfully died fighting the various totalitarianism distros, but we're turning exactly into what our former enemies were.

Heck, if it was up to me, I'd replace all government employees & civil servants with Google minions.

Yes, I certainly trust in big business more than any government.
Business always has my best interests at heart.

The ability to shuffle data/profits/jobs from country to country is not a swell thing for citizens or government.

You know, they could shuffle your data to China, I'm sure they'd stand right up to the authorities there.

Oh, wait. They already caved to them...
