My pants on Google Maps!

Google is wonderful. They can't stop growing and they manage to build very ambitious projects, so much that you could wonder whether they are gonna take over the world someday...

Google Streetview is a service that enables you to see a designated place just as if you were there. So my house is on Google Streetview. But the funniest thing is that, at the moment the picture was taken, I was drying my boxers on my curtain...

Yeah... This was not a legend just to make something nice on my blog.

Web 2.0 Week: Google

Ah, Google. Everybody knows this small page, simple, stupid, even ugly, and that however generates millions everyday.

At first sight, Google has nothing to do with Web 2.0, but Google is growing at the speed of light and is evolving towards it. You had Google Search, you now have Google Mail, Google Maps and so on and so forth. Without considering the websites Google lately bought such as YouTube, the most popular video website in the world.

And Google doesn't stop here. Lately, Google launched its own free online office applications, which is a real declaration of war to Microsoft, so far number 1 in software sales, but in a worse and worse shape against the rise of Apple and the development of multimedia giant Adobe.

So, after Google Earth and this quote comparing Google to God, are we gonna have Google Empire?
