I firmly believe that one day google will achieve world domination. Everyone will have andrioid type phones that control/interact with everything. The earth will be covered with a google cloud.
Then, they will change their name to Matrix.

I cannot wait to bow to the Google Project CloudNet. I want to beta-test SkyNet.

Seriously. I want it. I will laugh cynically.

Again, seriously not trolling.

Search as you type is pretty cool. Nice to modify your search as you go and see the changes instantly.

They're two videos created months ago about things that Google owns, things that Google is looking to buy, and how they have a hand in virtually every market and can monitor us at all times.

While disturbingly true, I personally don't worry about it. Yes, I value my privacy, but my privacy is "violated" every time I sign up a new account for any sort of free service (and many paid ones) or make a purchase online or in a B&M store. Google may be the worst culprit - being a huge advertising firm after all - but the truth of the matter is, if you don't want someone to know, don't look at it (or at least not on your computer). Unless you look at child pornography, download illegal warez, or regularly engage in illegal activities and talk about them online, you have nothing to worry about.

I digress.

srsly...chrome to phone = win for these moments :D

my work PC is locked down. IE8 (just got that a couple months ago) and no third party apps. Can't be on my cell while I'm working. Its one thing to download a quick app or file but youtube would surely get noticed.

There are cameras everywhere!!!!!

Ahh...another "Google is evil" video. We should just lump them together with Walmart and burn them at the stake.
