Review: I have been in the computer business for 13 years. I think Goggle is over valued. I have two reasons for this. Most people I know don't even notice the ads on the Goggle screen. It's like the free Internet companies a couple of years ago. If you agreed to have advertising banners on your screen they would give you free Internet. All of my customer's were fine with the banners. They would just tune them out. There were many other companies that tried providing free Web services in exchange for annoying ads on the screen. They all failed once the advertisers realized no one paid attention to them. As a matter of fact, people were frustrated by on screen advertising. Do you know anyone that likes Adware or pop ups on there screen?

Review: The reason Google continues to lead is because they rock. If someone else came out with a product that was as good, or even half as good, people might try it. However, I do not love reader.google.com and Picasa. Does that make me a traitor? Go Bloglines!

Review: Google is an awesome company, and honestly, I hope they do not gain AOL. AOL is a terrible investment, the ROI goes down not up. Just look at Time Warner's experience with it.

Review: Does Google vs. Yahoo+/MSN+/others feel like deja vu. Time has proven that no one remains king of the hill forever, be it Microsoft or Yahoo or Google. Competition leaves them under pressure bring out good things. Users will gain, technology will improve. Competition is good for all!

Review: Ironically the crazy stock price of Google reminds me of 99-00 when AOL was riding similar strides with its "advertising" revenues.

Review: MS is not to be counted out, but Google is certainly hitting on all cylinders and Yahoo is not far behind. Competition is good for consumers. Enterprises will see the cost of MS, Oracle, and IBM products driven down further. 2006 and 2007 will be the years of higher quality digital content becoming the norm, and in this arena, MS is certainly well positioned.

Review: Google stock to $500? Really? Sounds like someone who just bought some Google stock. Can anyone say bubble? Did everyone forget what happened not all that long ago?

Review: The battle has just begun. Watch what happens when small businesses realize what they can do with local search.

Review: I agree that Google may need to look deeper into providing visual branded ads, expecially as Internet advertising and competition continue to grow.
