Insert "All Your Base" Reference Here
Is it okay to be scared now? There's a new Google app that's set to be unleashed soon. Google Base? “Google Base is Google's database into which you can add all types of content. We'll host your content and make it searchable online for free.” This is either really good, or really bad – depending on how you look at it. As a Google shareholder, I'm sure this is good news (now your company is worth more than God). But my spidey senses are tingling. The very thing we feared Microsoft would try to do with the Internet, Google is doing. Do you understand what's happening – truly?
We're potentially giving the Internet to Google, people. With great power comes great responsibility. I just hope that someone does not set us up the bomb.

Isn't it up to the market to decide? If this works for people, then so be it. There are the occasional things I'd like to be able to store somewhere globally accessible, but most of the time this wouldn't be useful to me.

base is a natural extension of google’s business model. i think we will be seeing much more interesting (and scary) moves like this in the future. larry do you really think “the market” always makes the right decision? talk to me in 5 years when i can google your ip to see every page you’ve ever visited and comment you’ve posted. marketers allrady have much more than that.

I’m sure they’ll take off every ‘Zig’, for great justice. They know what they doing.
