Google and Facebook are fighting for our lives

At first sight, seeking to dirty stories about Google's system does not seem much to those who are not your life on Facebook and Google are doing. In fact, the PR war, Silicon Valley, Palo Alto, California, on the future of the Internet - and the future all the time.



Since its launch seven years ago, Facebook has grown into a monstrous, with more than 600 million users worldwide. Among his fans is the fastest and most convenient way to get in touch with friends who come from where they work and what they heard. Google looks at ill-concealed jealousy rise Facebook. For many years he believed that Google has always been very helpful to the primary way people discover new content, which will be online at all while the user the billions of Web pages, video and post it here?



Facebook is a great alternative, you can select the appropriate search engine Google in a split second, but Facebook does not have places to recommend to friends. According to a report by the Pew Research Center released this week, Facebook is the largest source of visitors, news agencies like CNN and The New York Times, often by Google. , Google and Facebook are increasingly recognized as competitors [a] The type of material on the Internet, the report concludes.



Google is so afraid that in the end be made by Facebook to stop social interaction among its members for the border war with Google for search engine Yahoo. As people find more news and links to Facebook, instead of searching on Google, you get traffic - and revenue - may begin to decline. Even worse, Google is terrible record in the construction of social networks in their application.



Larry Page, co-founder and president of the newly launched Google has quite a failure. Last month, he openly declared war against Facebook, connecting each bonus for employees in the event of a successful strategy for social development at Google. It 'difficult to demonstrate clearly how to motivate engineers and is easy to see why Facebook has decided to develop a public relations attacks.



But it is for people who are not glued to their computer? Interestingly, the answer is Google's new ad. In her father's daughter, e-mail with pictures and video of his birth, first words, ballet classes, and lost teeth. It 's fun for the tears I cry a list of all parents to see and, of course, shows the number of Google products to help you do the same for their children.



The message is that Google can help you communicate with family much more than paper documents with age (and certainly much more important for young people). It is believed that Google could gain access to e-mail, photos, videos and souvenirs, as can announce to you via this site and keep it on their pages. If you think that the vision of the future of refrigeration is that all contacts are doing now.



The battle between Facebook and Google is to have control over our lives online. And for those who have never lived in a world without the Internet, there is no distinction between online and offline.

Apple and Google for U.S. politicians to change the data mobile phone

Apple and Google are the U.S. officials on Tuesday complained that its privacy policy for the use of mobile phones, including the impact of the revelation, the iPhone and Android keep tracking data, location to collect . I think consumers have a fundamental right to know what information is collected about them, the Democratic senator from Minnesota, Al Franken told the Senate Judiciary subcommittee on privacy, technology and innovation with the law. I also think they have the right to decide whether this information with anyone and when it leaves the parties.



Frank, chairman of the subcommittee, said, I have serious doubts about these rights in law or practice should be respected, software, Apple chief Guy, Bud Tribble, said the company is committed to protecting your privacy .. Apple does not control the sites, he said. But Apple has never been done before and I will not ever;. He added, however, this statement means that Apple may use and collect data on the exact location, so familiar;. No question Tribble D response after hearing the apparent contradiction. Google's director of public policy in America, said Alan Davidson's Android smartphone platform similar policy. , All data, the situation returns to local servers, Google will be sent anonymously and is not responsible for the person or device, he said.



But Franken questioned claims that Apple and Google are anonymous location data. Asked another witness, investigators Ashkan Soltani, if the position of the timestamp can be used to allow users to follow. Soltani said that was possible and that the credits are given anonymously, not too serious, the senators were charged in the technology sector in the use of location data for commercial purposes - potentially billions of dollars - without the required license of millions of Americans ..



However, they say they are reluctant to control many of the confidentiality rules of development and innovation in space. mobile device, personal data helps companies adapt coupons, classifieds and weather information, among many others. Do not get me wrong. The existence of such a business model is not bad. I want to use Google Maps for free, Franks said. The parliamentarians also expressed concern for mobile applications for data exchange. Frank asked if Google and Apple with the mobile phone shops that developers have written privacy policy to create.



Davidson said that Google does not police downloaded applications on the market, and it is doubtful that the creators of this application is a privacy policy. Davidson, Google's direction is how to deal with such a policy. Tribble said that privacy should be built in applications, since many users do not read privacy policies.



Finally it was found that some members of the Committee is convinced that the practice of law on data protection and industry current enough to protect the right to privacy, to protect consumers. Franken said. We must seriously consider how to solve this problem and we need to solve this problem, at least four hours of privacy on the Internet that the U.S. legislature has proposed during this meeting that the company, which collects data on consumption are available and how state.



But it is too early to say what would be on the bills. Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, Democrat of Rhode Island, said he is frustrated that no company wants to take responsibility for the security of customer data to ensure that - in particular those relating to Google's preference for service providers to open and Internet malware, complete;.



I think we really need such restrictions. Working as open as possible, but if it is normal for this task, he said. The White House noted that some applications do not exist or have been sold very little, only because the developers to collect and sell personal information collected on users of the plan. : We have something that our model should be taken. I have not heard of this model here convinces me that the protection of privacy and the Internet, he added.

Android and Chrome: anytime, anywhere

Google is approaching a turning point in its platform of internal war. The time is almost at hand when deciding when to go on Android, Chrome, the operating system, and both are. But they will break, sooner or later the world, and now if I / can be a powerful note - This is not to say that has not been resolved internally, and also worked for a decimal number for next year.



The defendants present two messages: we expect more or less standard for Google (music), a number of surprises (Accessories Open Toolkit). Google relies on the possibility of an attack on two fronts few go OS: chrome everywhere and in all places Android.



Why is it so important that Google has a little 'to verify that the man the fans and LED-based Android? This is important because Google is positioning the mobile operating system Android, but as a general-purpose operating system for a very low ceiling, expandable to pills (I have no doubt, will develop far beyond what we see on the shelves, but more ), at least - what do you mean? Everything.



micro media, vehicles, equipment, robots, watches, toys, microscopes, X-ray machines, decoders, cameras ... want. Google or other device with the type of processor and interface are necessary. Oh, and everyone is talking about Google. If you check the refrigerator? Neither did I, but hundreds of millions of people who do not.

 

Android can fork the version that is much smaller than done, Vanilla, Honeycomb on Android. Buff to reduce dependencies, libraries, and the existing code in a simple way (same way), and attach it to cut into small pieces and 4 MB of RAM and a 25MHz processor. It will explode on your computer and invisible when she jumped into the phone.



Why? Because it is well documented, cheap (free, technically, but you have to decide, however, adapts to the body), versatile and designed to work with all stakeholders in order to compensate you have to work. And you learn



This appendix is ​​a bit 'big road test for Google to set foot in the door and start working the kinks. Rope in a popular and powerful platform for the health of cooperation piracy (Arduino) and now not only healthy, but a community. Rubin said that the community can grow, but it does not matter if the community can only provide the last mile. And if you give a tool the community can do what is almost incredible. Kinetics is a good example.

 

Meanwhile, the stable version of Chrome is similar, but more like the Android 1.0, stable, than anything else. It will not collapse, but has two or more years before it appears. And every year or two? Google hopes will be a number of 8-10 tablets in active service, and the same number of Ios, WebOS, Android, Chrome, and the operating system will be announced later in the day that is supported is one thing they all have in common a strong HTML 5 - compatible browser.



Of course, the machine Chrome, if you think Daffy and limited to the browser that you want. You can also each tablet at all, and 95% have access to Google services. They do not care whether or not Chrome - is stable, the operating system, low profile, which may or may not be much traction in low-cost devices. But part of the operating system and browser, Chrome, go to many parties to end users, it is not easy to distinguish.



Regardless of the platform on every issue in research. Where is the answer to your music? In the browser. How to rent movies? In the browser. Where are my pictures? Browser. E-mail? Browser. It 's simple, all shots in the creation of this little graph:



These ecosystems may seem a bit 'too far for today's consumers, which explains why Google is in my / O starts with no partner in the Los Angeles gala with musical guest Ke $ ha, you watch Street, browser past and earth country of APT. At least that's what I saw in a vision, heard of Arduino. But it makes sense, I think, primarily because Apple is pushing in both eyes.



low clouds and mobile applications (where more or less exposed, and not without reason), they are vulnerable - this is the first competition for the category of Apple can not (and integrated computer hack), and second, that each unit sold in the potential of the platform, Apple, Google, to win. Move the instrument to attack Hannibal-like Apple products and services in their different sides, while the healthy development of Android thrilled to prevent forward.



How do they sell to consumers is another matter. It will take time and Google is not the best marketing - not the enemies become. Clear Chrome is not ready, a universal platform to do it now, but Android has hardened on top of the scale and grow in size. The tablet is heated war, and cloud services are similar in general. This will be the iPhone Nexus X 5 (or so), CNF, and hundreds of technicians and other events that can not be predicted.



In fact, it's really the most likely outcome is that strange things between now and then, what happens in this article, you will be disqualified. At least in theory seems plausible for the true intentions of both platforms chameleon. Google Chrome only plan with a timetable was too optimistic.
