Google allows you to download your files from Google Drive. Is Google dropping Drive as well? /sarcasm

I've seen hundreds of report regarding the link between Google & NSA. Isn't that enough? This is just not gossip. It's not about Sergey Brin's love affair. This is about a piece of technology that is possibly built b

Number of miles don't matter much if the driving conditions are similar. I'd rather have them say, we can encountered 100,000 different conditions (and combinations) and we know how to react to them.

Android encompasses all economic classes than iOS. Of course, you cannot make money on the poor as much as on the rich. Is there a study anywhere that given the same economic bracket (e.g. people who make $75K a year), that user will pay mo

If you live in an iOS world, you'd think all startups or apps have gone iOS first. As an Android user, I have been witness to a number of startups who went Android first and found success. Why? Because they ignored advice like this pos

This is pretty typical arrogance you see from some tech people. They can't comprehend that something they don't use can be useful to other people. Is it quite possible that the author is not the target market for Chromebooks?

Maybe it will not be the same when Android 4.0 turns 3-years old. Android 4.0+ is just much more mature than 2.3 in terms of UI and API.

If Google only cares about traffic, it would have certified Amazon and the Chinese Android clones. I don't think we're contradicting each other though. Google will go where the users are but I doubt it would help out OS gain a foo

"no Android tablet has really taken off" FYI, Android tablet has larger market share than the IPad now. If you're narrowing it to just one brand/model, you're right. But Android tablets in general are selling a ton.

Why would Google do that? They would be helping another rival platform get market share. Google is releasing iOS apps because there's no way Apple is going away soon.

I could name at least 5 projects that Google is working now that is a long-term bet and doesn't care about quarterly earnings. I'm afraid that it would still not convince you otherwise.

Geez. So much hate. If it's not viable, why do you think Google is expanding it after testing it for months?

Where have you been? Pretty much every week people posts their outrage on Google here. So a user explicitly AUTHORIZED Google to track his/her location and we should be outraged at Google?
