I found a video online which is kind of a conspiracy about google and how it will merge with Amazon and a bunch of other stuff. The video is trying to "predict" the future of Google.

The video can be found at http://oak.psych.gatech.edu/~epic/

I am not sure how to take this video but I guess it is entirely possible. I am curious to see what other people say.

(I think this is the right forum for this)

Edit*
Sorry for the repost. I did use the search tool but looked for only Google, Amazon, and Googlezon. I did not use the word Epic, I didnt think to use it. Also I didnt go to the general discussion board today. Sorry again.

If your browser supports multiple connections to the server, you may have tripped the denial of service countermeasure. Wait 30 seconds and try again.

I like it. It's a cool set up, and I find google to be much more use friendly and reliable then anything I've ever used. I'd trust them with my personal information (more so than I already have - Thank you gmail!)

A very ironic video.

Very interesting. Though, I would hope that they would pick a better name than Googlezon. I like the ID of the one character they show, his expiration date is 2 days before the end of the Mayan Calendar.

I saw this a few months back, it's very interesting. The future of A9 hasn't been revealed yet, and that adds to my curiousity of the future.

However, Just recently, about a week or two ago, google very quietly released personalized homepages, with the ability to add your gmail account and customize your news sources into one. I'm sure that's just a start of the page - http://www.google.com/ig

I wonder what the IG stands for though...

i am going to register "EPIC" and force Google to change the name of his monopolistic media center...

I believe that the video is too paranoid, because that is the obvious step of a company that want to give its customers a better service. I have read that the concept of a massive amount of customer is no longer in use. What is significant right now is to reach the particularities of every person.

iGoogle probably, the "i" meaning something like "personal"..like iPod and such.
the concept of "my own Google"...damn. mine would be filled with porn, and random stupid videos from stupid sites.
