    The Google is very popular among the various other search engines like Yahoo, Alexa etc. The ranking in http://www.google.co.in plays a very important role in promoting a website. Fortunehotels.in is having good post in google and also looking to have a good rank in http://www.alexa.com/data/details/main?url=www.... alexa. I neet suggestions.

    Pure conjecture, but what if this somehow also plays into their social networking plans? I sincerely doubt they end at the Facebook Platform competitor they've announced so far. An open, standards based social operating system that runs across a variety of different devices would change the ballpark, rapidly transform Google from a search and advertising company into the leading software company of any kind, and scare the bejeezus out of both Redmond and Cupertino.

    I can' t wait to get my hands on a g-phone. My only hope is that they don't over do the
    thin thing... if you make it super-thin there's no space for batters and less space for
    features.. no one in there right mind puts a iphone in there pocket.
    So there is no reason for it to be that thin.
    Think looks great on your boyfriend... but phones should be thick.

    Seriously?!? "No one in their right mind puts an iPhone in their pocket"!!! Wow, I guess you don't have in iPhone or have any friends with one. A) they're not that thin at all, and B) the pocket is where most of them (including mine) go.

    In any event, the point of this article is that maybe, just maybe, the Google play will be more "game changing" just a device that can display their services/content. Perhaps it will be an entire OS and accompanying ecosystem that phone hardware producers can use (or license) to give them (and us, the consumers) access to a much more content rich and open environment. This would truly compete against the iPhone in a way that the iPhone has no possible access to at this point.

    Google definitely has the muscle to pull something pretty revolutionary off. I eagerly await their move. I've read a little about their plans to try to integrate ALL the little pieces of media that are currently exclusive to the various social networking sites (i.e. you upload a song to Myspace and it only plays on Myspace). They're going to try to do for social networking what they are doing for the ever murkier line between OS and internet-based apps. Could be real good.
