Google Energy shows Activity

Google recently signed a deal with Story II Wind Energy.  The 20 year contract states Google will buy 114 megawatts per month from the wind farm.  This will allow Google to offset its carbon footprint.

Their was a great deal of speculation as to why Google would need a license to buy and sell energy.  The speculation has been settled as it appears Google wants to support wind farms directly instead of having to go through local power companies.

In my opinion Google should build it's own distribution lines underground in the United States and provide their Google Internet Services through it's conduits using fiber.

Nexus One Waves Goodbye! [:(

Google has announced that on July 16^th 2010 they have officially received the last order of Nexus One phones from HTC.  Most people have tried to point out that this is a failure of the Android system but in fact it is just the opposite.  The whole basis of the Nexus One was to jumpstart the Android OS.  The Android OS did get it’s jumpstart and is responsible for the activation of 160,000+ phones per day.

The Nexus One will still be available but no longer through Google and no longer in the United States.  It will be available through Vodafone in Europe, KT in Korea, and a slight possibility of T-Mobile in the US.

The change in inventory at Google is most likely due to the fact that other Android systems sold at wireless carriers have been more successful such as the HTC EVO 4G and the Droid X.  The phone is also being phased out as it is old technology and has been outpaced by other platforms.

Google will still support its Nexus One customers and would like to thank each and every one of you Android Fan’s

Replica Island

     

  Modern Day Mario displayed as an Android travels through a world created by (The Source) a power source of unimaginable power.  The design changes from a desert to a scene that resembles an underground sewage system as described by the games characters while being mostly antagonistic they help you out along the journey.  As you move through the maps you are required to collect three red gems at each level to continue.  The game can easily be called the most involved and long lasting games on the Android platform as it contains thirty eight levels.

Google buys ITA Software

Google purchased ITA Software a company primarily based on providing flight information as well as flight pricing to major travel companies.  This purchase is designed to put a spark in the online booking industry where Google will plan to build an app for their popular android based smartphones to allow users to receive alerts on flight status as well as book cancel or change a flight.  Google is also said to be working on something huge in the airline industry which would most likely be the Android App.  The service will not be restricted to just android devices, but would be available on regular computers also.

The service will most likely be integrated into Google Maps where you would choose your destination and it would present you with the option to choose one of the nearest airports it would then route you too that airport and through your terminals to lead you to your destination city.

Google buys Simplify Media

Google purchased Simplify Media (Isn’t that the way it always starts).  Simplify Media was a company that until recently provided streaming media to devices such as the iPod Touch.  The media service effectively canceled new subscriptions and was given the proper media release that with the recent purchase of their company they would no longer be accepting new subscribers but will still provide services to existing subscribers.

In effect it appears that by this Fall 2010 we will have a full fledged Google cloud to phone music service that will be in beta and start accepting open subscribers in spring 2011.  The service will allow you to purchase music and then instead of storing it on your phone like you are required to on the iPhone you can stream it directly from the servers.  Thanks to Google being one of the best companies in the world their will most likely be an option to download a certain number of songs to keep on your device just in case you are not in range of wifi, 3G, or the newly introduced 4G.

The service will be revolutionary because most likely it will be super efficient due to Google knowing how to push each of our individual buttons.  It will also be revolutionary because with the immense power of google they will be able to recieve many contracts from recording studios and could possibly overtake the popularity of iTunes in six months.

Update:  As of June 30th 2010 the servers at Simplify Media will be officially shut down and prepped for the move to Google’s control.
