Google winner takes all

Hey everyone I hope that you have had a pleasant summer and are ready to get back to the world of technology.  I wanted to write a quick response to the new browser that has just come out from Google.  First of all in their own style the user guide is a 38 page comic strip very new media of them.  I started to read the comic then got sent the direct link to install the browser and went for it.  I have seen some ringing endorsements especially from Tim O’Rielly  (see below from twitter), they seem to of hit a chord here.  But they have done one more thing to step to a winner takes all strategy for the web.  I spoke earlier about the size of their network being vastly bigger then any social network today, well now they will control the entrance to the web and that is big.   I ran Chrome for awhile and it started off slow then picked up speed.  The other thing that I noticed is that a large amount of chatter came out about how to adjust the privacy setting since a lot of data was going back to google.   Yet Chrome is very unique I think that the modular architecture is ahead of the web industry and may very well be what everyone else needs to do .

Retweeting @migueldeicaza: Google’s Chromium source code is beautiful; Very elegant; Very succinct; Almost K&R-ish in spirit.
