Google's taking over the world

Google is one of those innovative companies that comes along only every so often. While its constantly introducing cutting-edge information searches, Google is also becoming somewhat of a monopoly in the search engine business.

Since the company announced OpenSocial, which will provide a common set of APIs for social applications across multiple Web sites such as Friendster, MySpace, orkut and a multitude of other social sites. This means users can create web content that can be used in each of these Web sites as seamlessly as possible. Users will have only one profile versus having to join each site.

Google is getting a lot of sites under its umbrella and has the chance to make the company even more money through advertisements, which is its main source of revenue. It is asserting its web influence and dominance, which will be difficult to follow. Google was ahead of the game a long time ago and now it will be hard to stop this giant.

And here I though MySpace was just about telling people what I did this weekend.
