Is it the GWW instead of the WWW?

Posted on June 20, 2008

Google Lunar X Prize
Maybe Tim Berners-Lee the man credited with the invention of the World Wide Web (not our buddy Al Gore) was actually not thinking big enough. Will the web shortly be renamed Galaxy-Wide Web? It seems that Google has their sites set on taking the web into our galaxy. From the Google Lunar X Prize site, "The Google Lunar X PRIZE is a $30 million competition for the first privately funded team to send a robot to the moon, travel 500 meters and transmit video, images and data back to the Earth." Gee, missing-out on that Google IPO seems like a mistake that just keeps growing. What’s next for Google? Their own country? Oh wait, they already possess the world. Intergalatic web anyone?

    They are getting really, extraordinarily big and powerful. Coupled with the fact that they know everything about everyone, I wouldn’t be surprised if they get a seat on the UN soon.

    Let’s just hope they stick with their “do no evil” slogan, cause geeze they sure could if they wanted.
