I think that this is going to be extremely interesting on how Google Me turns out compared to Facebook. Especially since most people already use google for so many things such as email, YouTube, and blogs. With all these Google applications that people are already using and even adding them or linking them into their current Facebook. My question is will Google Me be the next Facebook? It's not for certain, but I believe that Facebook is going to have some stiff competition especially since, Google already has around two million fans on Facebook.
I would like to also reference a movie that is titled Google Me. This movie is about a man by the name of Jim Killeen, who googled himself one afternoon like most of us have before. He then had the idea of finding other Jim Killen's around the world and interviewing them. This movie is about his adventure finding all the other Jim Killens, and getting to know them and their families. He finds seven Jim Killens that agree to meet and be interviewed by him.

Google also has something called Google Wave that was being Beta-tested this summer. Not sure exactly the difference between that and Google me...
ReplyDeleteI hadn't heard of the Google Wave before but I just checked it out. It looks like to me that Google Wave is more for blogging, and connecting your other google applications together into one generalized location. Im not positive though due to the complex layout of Google Wave of the almost endless cascading windows. Another negative point of Google Wave besides the complexity, is that currently a end user cannot delete their wave account. So it looks like im stuck with one, so i may have more to add later.
