-----------------

Google just topped $300 billion valuation today, even if just briefly
in its relentless climb.

Very soon google will be 75% size of appil crocporation,
and very notably it has fewer places to go after beating appil.

So where to go in the near future embracing open source
and Linux for google.

If it turns to evil as many crocporations run
by MBAs (read non-techies) do, then it will falter like microshaft
and appil and become enemy to everyone.

Educashun has failed MBAs (read non-techies) running
big crocporations because they have no idea how to invest
in technology and make companies and technologies relevant
to the people it serves - and so these failed MBAs (read non-techies)
engage in activities important for their failed MBAs trainging
such as management trolling activities, patent trolling activities,
share holder trolling activities, tax evasion, and endless fraud against
the customers and competitors that face them instead
of busying themselves ringing up companies with new technologies
and to roll out new technologies
to get more customers and expand business.

Somehow the piles of money has to be spent and best way for
a Linux friendly, open source friendly company is to spend
that money on even more open source and even more linux and even
more Linux and open source technology.

In this brave new world of open source built empires,
whatever your MBA training has taught you to cheat and misbehave
has all got to be changed into spend spend spend on open source
to create a network of resources that feed all your important future
project.

So spend some money on Ubuntu and tell them what other features
you would like, spend some money on display makers and tell them
want displays you would like, spend some money on ARM makers and
tell them what else you want on the ARM chips.
Create a mass of open source projects too numerous to count,
and into each put some small amount of money as prize money,
so if someone can build and release open source software and
hardware, they are pushing the technology envelope, but more
importantly, you got access to all of it because it is open
sourced projects.

Better screens, better user interfaces, better keyboards,
better drivers, better apps, better app creation software,
better mouse, better connectors, better interconnections,
better networking, better switches, better voice software
etc etc etc.
If a hundred people could write out projects and each
project got between $1000 to $10,000, there would be tens of
thousands of projects that would put every idle engineer into
some task that benefits open source, and which will untilmately
benefit google. If prevents MBAs (read non-technies) from
furthering themselves up the organization, because they
can't engage with this kind of stuff and would rather go
and work for some other company they can run to the ground more
easily.
