Google's Parallel Universe Business Concept
This piece consists of excerpts from the N.Y. Times' articles pertaining to
Google's Android software and my projection that Google has a long term
business plan of implementing a virtual parallel universe. Please be
informed that after most of the NY Times excerpts, I enclose in (bold ) my
comments relevant to Google's parallel universe business concept. I
also inserted content from a Google patent that supports my prediction.
In
my opinion Google’s open source Android software and the mobile phone
is the foundation for the evolution of all facets of future lifestyles.
NY Times excerpts & comments:
Google..
announced on Monday that it was leading a broad industry effort to
develop new software technologies aimed at turning cellphones into
powerful mobile computers. (going with the trend... mobile phone &
Internet access is a must. In addition, The World Information Society
Report of May 16, 2007, exclaimed that mobile telephony holds the
greatest potential to bridge the digital divide.)
And by giving
outside software developers full access to a Google-powered phone’s
functions, the alliance members hope for a proliferation of new
PC-style programs and services, like social networking and video
sharing. (the development of the facets that makes up the parallel
universe dimension.)
"We’re human beings and we communicate, and
that’s what the Internet social network phenomenon is all about," said
Robert Pepper, a former policy chief at the Federal Communications
Commission. (the Internet social network phenomenon shall develop into
the virtual parallel universe dimension.)
The idea is that just
as spreadsheets, word processors, video games and other software tools
turned the personal computer into an everyday appliance, the emergence
of new mobile applications can spur wider adoption of so-called
smartphones. More use of the Web, whether on PCs or on phones, benefits
Google because its advertising systems have such broad reach. (motive
for Google to create a virtual parallel universe.)
Software
developers "will build applications that do amazing things on the
Internet and on mobile phones as well," Eric E. Schmidt, Google’s chief
executive, said at a news conference. (reading in between the lines,
Schmidt was telling us of the open source development of the virtual
parallel universe)
The phone plan mirrors Google’s efforts to give away
software and services for PCs and profit through customized
advertising. (Google's revenue stream.)
Mr. Schmidt of Google
has said in the past that advertising on mobile phones is likely to
eventually bring the cost of making calls to zero. (which creates an unlimited market to advertise to.)
Google
software suggests that phones made using the technology will have
features and design similar to the iPhone. Andy Rubin, Google’s
director of mobile platforms who led the effort to develop the
software, recently demonstrated a hand-held touch-screen device that
gave an immersed view of Google Earth, the company’s three-dimensional
mapping program. (expect to see the three-dimensional mapping
program develop into the virtual parallel universe scenarios/stage that
the parallel universe citizen shall view and live in.)
As an
example, Mr. Rubin said the Street View feature of Google Maps could
easily be coupled with another service showing the current location of
friends. (the operative word is location or a scenario/stage in the
parallel universe.)
Part of Google’s strategy appears to be that
the Android software will lead to new kinds of devices that have
cellphone and wireless Internet functions, but have shapes and sizes
different from today’s cellphones and PCs. (real life experiences
occurring in the virtual parallel universe.)
Intel, an alliance
member,... Mr. Schmidt hinted broadly at this when he answered a
question on Monday... "It’s important to realize there will be many
mobile experiences," he said. (you can't put a number on life living
experiences.)
an alliance of companies led by Google plans to
begin introducing a common set of standards to allow software
developers to write programs for Google’s social network, Orkut, as
well as others, including LinkedIn, hi5, Friendster, Plaxo and
Ning. (diminsions and scenarios we commonly refer to as cities.)
The
effort faces several hurdles. Developers may not see the advantage to
writing programs that run across such remarkably different networks
(diminsions) as, for example, LinkedIn, which caters to business
professionals, and hi5, which is popular in Central America. (to the
contrary, developers shall jump at the opportunity to write programs in
exchange for revenue-sharing.)
Google's "open source" Android
software shall provide users more opportunities to live vicariously
through their mobile phones. In tracking the user's online actions,
Google provides the 3D persona (avatar) detailed personality
characteristics developed from the users real life online living
experiences. Second Life's 3D avatar becomes boring and soon to be
obsolete. Google is in a position to dominate & manipulate virtual
life communities. Why?.... because Google's open application sources
and the mobile phone is defining who you are by e-psycho-analyzing your
online activities. See language in patents filed by Google... "User
dialog (e.g., from role playing games, simulation games, etc) may be
used to characterize the user (e.g., literate, profane, blunt or
polite, quiet etc). Also, user play may be used to characterize the
user (e.g., cautious, risk-taker, aggressive, non-confrontational,
stealthy, honest, cooperative, uncooperative, etc)."
