I'm going to reserve final judgement until I actually get a chance to use the service and see the direction Google wants to take it. My first reaction is not positive. This feels like Google's Microsoft Money moment Go into a market with an established leader, use your size and dominance to undermine the competition just because you're the 800lbs gorilla and you need to be fed at any cost. There doesn't appear to be anything new here. Just a Google logo.
- enneff 17y agoHave you looked at the Geo features? The integration with several existing services? Of course it is not a new idea, but to say "just a Google logo" does a great disservice to the team who've been working hard on this project.
- jsz0 17y agoNo, I haven't got it yet. That's why I'm reserving judgement of the actual service until I can use it. Google's engineers are fantastic and I'm sure it's a good service. My concerns are purely on the business/competitive side.
