Google learned from the past! Split stay small!

It amazes me still today why we refuse to learn from past experiences! In my lifetime from a realestate perspective I have seen the world's largest retailers grumble! There was Grant's Woolworth’s and Aimes! Of course Wal-Mart learned from that and whipped Kmart’s ass!

It's only a matter of time before Wal-Mart forgets why it got so huge and grumbles to another retailer! But let’s talk technology!

I remember when no-one could touch IBM, and then there was Microsoft and Apple battling for the largest share of the technology world. Then a little unknown company with a great concept came along called Google. Of course no-one took it seriously just as Facebook was not taken seriously and now do we e even know what MySpace is!

I was a faithful Blackberry user. Did you know that Blackberry at one time had 60% of the cell market? I loved all my BB, and believe me I had them all!

Then I was convinced by adds, technology (being a techy freak) to try the Iphone! Hated it! Back to my Blackberry! Then Palm made a come back and for those that forget Palm had the first touch screen followed by MSN! Hated it! Back to my Blackberry!

Recently I was moved by T-Mobile My Touch 4g! I don’t know why, it was not the commercials or even service (we have had t-mobile before) and it scares me we are moving to ATT! They are fucking expensive! I have to say over all the years ATT has been my primary cell company. They tend to go away when they get too big just to come back and buy everything again!

Well back to my Google discussion! Google did what Microsoft did many years ago! It allowed developers to use the OS. Go ahead build on our OS and then we can make money off everything else. This is something Apple still regrets and refuses to do!

Google stock may be at $400 or more a share and it's worth it. Facebook says it will do an IPO at $1000 per share. Dudes you better do it before Google goes worldwide. I don’t have it yet, but based on my phone's experience and the fact they now have 40% of the cell market, Google plans will eat Facebook as Facebook did to MySpace!

Always remember Google the bigger you are the faster you fall! Split into smaller companies and you will succeed!
