Question of the Day, May 8, 2010

[BehattedWanderer]

In 2012, Google will go to Apple, and from this unholy meeting we shall see the birth of our new masters as they develop the means of knowing our location at any given moment and supplying all of our needs in an instant. From this godawful union, they shall come to control our daily lives, our motions, and our schedules. Any disruption of their steady supply will ruin our lives, and we will grovel before them like the pitiful sniveling creatures we are.

 

[Super Toast]

Apple. http://www.cracked.com/article_18377_5-reasons-you-should-be-scared-apple.html

Be afraid...

 

[Irridium]

My vote is for Bungie.

It is their master plan after all.

Bungie will be victorious... mark my words...

 

[Deleric]

Hey, Nintendo's BEEN ruling the world.

 

[j0z]

I say Google, although I don't know if I would complain much really... I like Google, even if they do have access to a disturbing amount of my information.

 

[Stuntcrab]

Would a world run by Google actually be a bad thing?

Yeah internet in our minds

I want to say Google, but if both Google and Apple had the choice of taking over the world, Apple would be quicker to say "yes" than Google.

Because Steve Jobs has no heart.

 

[Scrythe]

Google. No one will see it coming.

And it will be awesome.

 

[Angerwing]

In 2012, Apple will hold its biggest conference ever. It will introduce their new groundbreaking technology that will affect everyone in the world... and they will announce that they are officially changing their name to Skynet.

Would that make it a skyPod?

 

[Zing]

The pieces are falling to place

First Search Engine, then satellite, then Browser, then OS, soon cars and housing, then hospitals, then oil..

Muahahaha. I gladly fuel this machine by running Chrome.

 

[L-J-F]

Scary, but I hope it's goodle, they're not THAAAAT bad, Sony would scare the crap out of me, Microsoft wouldn't be that bad, Apple would end with a world that's all white plastic and ridiculously crap and yes, Nintendo would make a family friendly world ... [shudders] ... can you imagine a G-rated world? They'd tase you for swearing or looking at a member of the opposite sex lol.

 

[Redlin5_v1legacy]

Hmm, why does everyone fear Google. They only have pictures of our homes, directions on how to get to our homes, intimate knowledge about us and our online life and.... Oh, wait.

I still fear Microsoft more though. They made way too much money on the Halo series and Windows XP to be simply be overrun by Google.

Oh and Apple? ...bwahahaha! No one in my town owns a Mac and only like three people own an iPod. They need to step it up a notch before they intimidate me.

I'm cool with Sony ruling the world. They haven't done something to destroy my confidence in their abilities yet.

Nintendo? No. Not unless they build two dozen giant mecha Marios or Bowsers or Pikachus or something.

I don't get why people think these are all seperate companies. We think of them as seperate entities because we're supposed to, but the truth is that all throughout the corporate world the people who are on the board of directors for one company, are generally on the board of directors for many companies. These all have seperate names and seperate products because they want to give us the illusion of choice, when in reality the same people are profiting no matter who you buy from. They already rule the world.

You are deluding yourself if you think it works exactly like this.
Yes a lot of companies swap CEO's and board members like hotcakes, but some companies have feuds as well. Companies relations are just like any other form of relations, it varies depending upon how they interact and their particular views.

 

[Kaymish]

google controls much of the control of information and information is power asll they need to do now is spend their vast fortune on guns and mercenaries

 

[TheSeventhLoneWolf]

It's not on the list, but Packbuster.

you'll see.

 

[ZeppMan217]

I don't really mind Nintendo or Google to take over the world. But not Apple.

 

[reg42]

Microsoft. They could put software that takes down all your activity in a normal updates package, and we would never know.

 

[Crayzor]

Facebook, and their crusade against privacy.

 

[Grouchy Imp_v1legacy]

Mine. The sooner you all submit the easier it'll be on you. These big, lumbering corporate giants have no chance against my swift, nimble company of ninja-ness!

Although seriously Microsoft. Hell, World War III will be between Microsoft and Sony for crying out loud!
