I think google should concentrate on its current areas right now and once they are fine tuned go ahead and venture out in new areas. i mean you could have a million different areas but suck in everyone of them. In no means does google suck but i think you get my point.

Google To Enter Into Ebay Territory

delivi
I hope that Google will become the ruler of the web. Google provides most of the services available on the web like Search, Mail, Maps, News Groups, Blogs, Chat, Shopping,......

Now Google is likely to enter the Online Auction arena. I recently came across a site that informs that google is set to enter the eBay territory. An entry yesterday on the Google Base Blog reveals plans to allow people to buy and sell items on Google Base using their Google Accounts.

im not realy happy with that, becouse google didnt started that service earlyer, before eBay. They should invent something like eBay but with some small feautures that google invented. Like you can get some things for free if you have ... a lot of activity on google or something...

i think this is pretty cool. and even though google dosent really have the best reputation with all this privacy and information storing rumors going on i think that it would be nice of google to do something like eBay. then again it might just make this internet a bit more messy than this messy crap that it already is. just another service....which would make you sign up there too. and then when you look for stuff to buy you have to look on eBay AND on googles ebay thing.

as for sqlbytes proposal of getting free stuff is you have lots of activity i dont think that is very realisic. first of all because google dosent really have any community type stuff and any activity isnt really going to contribute to google. and if it was mean for googles ebay thing then i dont think it is possible at all because all the stuff that are sold are from private people and not by google. and i dont think private people are going to give their stuff awayfor free.

I do not think that many people except those extremely dedicated to Google will use this unless Google really tries hard to get people to use this. The reason I think they will have problems with it is that unlike many of the services that Google offers (like mail) this service actually has reasonable competition that people can not complain about. I think that Google will have a hard time taking on Ebay.

Google Base is the service strted by Google that will enter into the eBay territory.

In Google Base you can post any product or anything so that it is searchable by anybody so much similar to eBay.

This service is still in Beta Stage, so more features will be added as it goes on under development.

Well I hope they will have more protection for buyers and more strict policing of sellers and a higher standard of customer service policy.

Fed up with awful sellers on ebay.

I'm not too sure. at the moment there's only 1 place to go to do online auctions - ebay. google won't add more people to the auctions it'll just split ebay's audience. so sellers will have to put an ad on ebay and google base costing them more money but not getting anything more back sad.gif

Like trace-uk said, This will ruin sellers chance of selling something since they need to put it on one site while there audience is being split. THey cant put it on both sites because they only have one item so if it is bought on both sites then one they have a situation since they have two buyers for one item, two they have to pay more to get it on google and ebay, third google already has enough stuff going on. They dont need to have a auction place.

One thing that Google could make is let us use our funds from Google Adsense for example in ebay!! I think its a good ideia!! tongue.gif
So, for those who have for example $50 and have VERY LITTLE clicks and the prevision to get to the $100 is in 1 year blink.gif they could use those $50 in ebay, the same goes for those who have plenty of $$ on Adsense!! biggrin.gif
Well, it's just a thought, i think it's a very good ideia, but i don't think Google would do something like this!!

Sounds good to me, i mean if google made it so that there fees werent as much for selling items i could look forward to some fair competition. Which would result in a drop of the fees which would make alot of people happy. The biggest problem i have with ebay is the fees, it can cost alot of money if you sell something like a car on ebay.

I hope google go through with it, i have liked google since the beginning and i think they would do a great job with auctions.

google already has everything in the internet in their control i don't think it should go to ebay they already have their froogle ,which is not much popular but could be made if google uses its other services to make it popular ,hope google just try to be better at search engines and not try to jump on every other competitor

Well thats news to me If google is going to enter Auctions Arena it will have more buyers and sellers as most people use google and i hope google would provide more easy search and the lowest rice with best quality for the consumers.
as google doent has that many adds on the site so it should be fun shopping on google.
i would love to buy on gogle.

    Google web browser Chrome fails to initialize the installation process (3)
    Hi, I tried to install Google Chrome web browser on my Windows XP computer and faced the following
    error each time: "Access to this application is restricted." Well! I do not exactly know where
    this comes from but I guess that it is one of Google's racist issues. As I tried from my home
    country Iran, some Google services like Google Code are not available due to bans that the company
    has put on particular advanced services. Because the installer first comes from the sub-domain
    code.google.com I think that the same cause also applies here. The question is if it ....

    Well it seems Google is going ahead with service even though the huge security risks that are
    involved in this program. Of course, they are well aware of the problems that come with this, but
    even if they got military grade security on their servers, there is far to much risk having your
    medical records floating around on the internet. However, its not like they have been circulating on
    the net for years through computer databases and what not, and that really surprises me that

    having a tough time in catching criminals and terrorists. The terrorists and their supporters use
    the Google-owned Gmail or Orkut sites for their communication. According to security officials,
    since Google servers are based in US and their IP addresses are masked, it takes a long time to get
    the real IP addresses and log details of culprits. Moreover, Google demands a judicial order to
    process the request which further delays the arrest of the accused, who may even have ....
