Really? If Google was to be over, it would mean a lot of things for many people. It might mean the end of searches, it might mean the end of web crawlers, it might mean a loss of jobs for many, many people!
Except that this question from Fortune magazine has only raised a chuckle. The fact that this simplistic search engine recently celebrated a 30 million users and 3 million business users benchmark, it seems difficult that Google will be over. A company that witnesses growth in revenue from ad revenue at the time of recession is likely to see brighter things once the economy actually picks up.
The article from Fortune assumes that there are no new offerings from Google, while implies that the company is slowing down. It believes this might mean the end of the Google story. While actually, it is no doubting that Google is constantly innovating in an area where they largely dominate the market. Google dominates more than 60% of the market search in online search. So much so that Google is easily used as a synonym for online search. This identifies the company as a strong contender for future growth. Google is constantly launching new products and features such as search engine services, ad searches, online word processing, email, blogging and RSS feeds. This implies that the company and its young Turks know how to keep the company diversified and therefore profitable.
What then could tone down the progress of this famously progressive company? Search is not going to slow down in the near future and therefore, neither is Google.
