Seems like google wont be just a simply Search Engine in a few more time, it is implementing lots of features
This one is cool, but as i can see people have bad taste of music

Very interesting of a feature. It looks like i am going to have to go and browse it for a while and see if it is worth a daily visit.

Very nice service indeed, but there is one tiny little fact which just spoiled the value of this service 100% to me:
[qoute]We're currently showing Music Trends for the United States only, but we'll be expanding to include other countries as we get more data from our Google Talk users.[/qoute] Europeans are left behind, very irritating, but I guess it's the doom of not living in the united states of america, which has a lot of good things as well Anyway I am wondering this one thing.. Google Talk is usually used by people who know a lot about computers and stuff, while other people (namely MSN users) are usually far less serious.. Won't we get a music index of nerdo people?

If Google asks you before they send out your personal information, think about what malware can do.
All your personal info and tastes will be out there on the net. I dont know, to what extent google will go with this. Google desktop also has features that send out personal info. I dont think it augurs well for the people. Especially if something like what happened at AOL happens in google. Somebody mistakenly releasing information. Be very careful about what you do with your computer that has an internet connection. - Thats all. |

Music trend is still in lab, so dont dissappoint, let the lab test this product on Americans , remove some bugs, some prons and cons, and present us with a fresh and final product.

Google continues to grow from strength to strength. They really know how to grow where others have already grown up beyond what others could dream of competing and google always find a way out to compete them with their unique approach from Search, Advertisement, Mail, Google earth, google map and Messenger and etc. We can only expect more stuffs to be rolled out in the coming years.
And about the privacy about using google products, I think it's the same with others too. We just need to be careful. That's all otherwise we will end up using none. |
