Google Planning Web Browser?
Google
The Internet

from the reaching-out dept.
Kick the Donkey writes "John Dvorak has just posted a very interesting,
albeit hypothetical, analysis of Google's future directions. Citing the
'unusual' hires of Rob Pike (from Bell labs), Ben Goodger, and Darin
Fisher (both from Mozilla) and the acquisition of the gbrowser.com
domain, Dvorak speculates that a Firefox based Google browser and
Google-OS may soon be coming to a cluster near you."

His move into the Google camp also is a clue for the direction Google
is heading - the development of its own web browser.

Unconfirmed rumours have circulated for some time that Google has its
own browser in development. Small details, such as Google registering
the "growser" domain, hint at its intentions.

Ben Goodger, the lead developer on Firefox, announced on his blog today
that he is joining Google.

This will only fuel the rumors that Google is developing a browser
based on Firefox. Ben writes...

India may power Google's instant messenger

Geodesic is believed to be working on a prototype of what could be Google's instant messenger.

http://www.geodesiconline.com/htm/products/products.htm

From the site:

Mundu Messenger is an "Interoperable Instant Messaging" tool that lets users communicate with one another instantly and seamlessly communicate across other major instant messaging services including AIM, ICQ, MSN and Yahoo. Mundu combines valuable features viz. URL transfer, interoperability with AIM, ICQ, MSN and Yahoo,
cross-conferencing (a world first), easy portability, cross platform availability and host of integrated services including integration of mail notifications, sms/reverse sms and a scrolling news, mail and stocks ticker, making it the finest instant communication tool available on the Internet.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A53827-2004Oct22.html

"he added that the broader underlying outline is that the company intends to use software technology made available freely to its customers to drive traffic and that could be a model that would be difficult for rivals like Microsoft to compete against. 'Google is making a mockery of existing technology solutions, to wit, Microsoft,' he said."

Microsoft's internet browser gets caught in its own web

John Naughton
Sunday October 3, 2004
The Observer

Here's the puzzle. Whatever one may think of it, Microsoft is a smart, rich, pathologically competitive organisation. It employs very clever people, and prides itself on producing software with more features than the competition. So how come it has allowed its browser - which, after all, is for many users the application they use most - to languish like this? IE hasn't changed much in five years, which is an
eternity in the software business.

Why?

Browsing a la Google?

Word on the Web is that Google may be thinking of releasing a Web browser--possibly one based on the open-source Mozilla code. The company now owns www.gbrowser.com, a URL that would certainly make a logical companion to GMail's home at www.gmail.com.
