Nothing's free in this world.

Maximum effective speeds will range from 15kph to 30kph. To Google, that will give the appearance of a log-jam or, at the very least, moderate traffic congestion. When, in actuality, things may be moving quite smoothly.<br /><br />This is a great idea, but I think there need to be many refinements to make it a useful tool.velocipedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12795860797070137382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-25223520863202460552009-08-27T04:32:31.178-07:002009-08-27T04:32:31.178-07:00If you walk the speed you will be going will be mu...If you walk the speed you will be going will be much slower than everyone else and it will be fairly obvious.

I trust google more then my own apartment in terms of keeping my personals secure.<br /><br />It is also fascinating that they are not just collecting data for the sake of and just sitting on it. Everything they collect is cleansed and repurpused to improve or create products. (I still want google spell check for openoffice) <br /><br />Also when google becomes self-aware i believe it will be kind enough to enslave us vs liquidate a la Skynet.Mike2https://www.blogger.com/profile/06245438695813826819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-66086402872173609272009-08-26T03:42:07.902-07:002009-08-26T03:42:07.902-07:00Not for now.

But the merging between all your data could be very powerfull. For good (I believe Google will do good things) but also for bad : just imagine a hack of your Google account in 2 years when the services will be upgraded to awesome things (with your last locations, your calls and texts - gg voice -, your contacts, your private pictures/videos, your work on Docs, ...).
