If "Puffin", as they call it, has relevant ads in it, I'll still be wary about using it. (Text-ads or not.) I'll try it, but if they're too intrusive... I'm hoping Google does well here as I'd like to see Microsoft have some competition. And as for not having a Web-Browser . . . ? I'd like to see that!!

Now Google wants the files in your box

First your surfing habits, next your email (G-spymail) next Larry and Sergey will want to know what files you have on your hard drive. Why don't we just get the Google Brain Implant so they can know our every thought. Just think when you blink your eyes you will see a relevant ad to the thoughts you think. The Google OS is discussed in detail, look at the Search OS page at http://www.searchwars.squarespace.com Learn about the so called search OS
