Google Warming up to Apple
Monday, October 30th, 2006 | Apple News | No Comments
It seems that Google is really serious about their relationship with Apple. Several months ago Google’s CEO, Eric Schmidt was appointed to the Apple board and I think I’m seeing some results. A few weeks ago Google launched a Mac blog dedicated to discussing and showcasing how Google is for Mac. Google reaffirmed its commitment to making its products compatible with the Mac. The most recent post on the Google Mac blog talks about Google’s presence at the MacExpo UK this Fall. Google was showcasing their software and its use on the Mac. They put the spotlight on Google Video, Google Maps, Google Earth (which I have on my Mac) and SketchUp. I’m looking forward to the day when all of Google’s products will run smoothly in Safari and on OS X.

Apple may be one of the smaller players in the high tech world. However, we may be underestimating its influence on technology. Wil Harris of TrustedReviews.com wrote an article analyzing the improvements in computer design. He attributes this to two things - the trend toward “cinema PC’s” and Apple Inc. Because of Apple’s success with the iPod and later the iMac and the MacBooks other computer manufacturers are realizing that design matters. Now high tech companies such as Dell and Microsoft are spending more money and time on design. To get all the juicy details on this phenomenon of design and how Apple is in the lead, read Wil’s article at TrustedReviews.com.
