Given my post last night, this will probably sound like piling on. But I’m sorry, it’s the first thing that comes to mind. I don’t see how it can’t.
How on Earth is Google going to avoid antitrust inquiries with their new Search+ features announced today? If Facebook, Twitter, etc, have any decent presence in DC, the ball began rolling a few hours ago.
This is the type of case that Senators die for. Google wrapped it in a bow and placed it in one of their laps.
Most of the broader antitrust concerns against Google are bullshit in my opinion. You can argue that they have a monopoly on search, but it’s a natural one. They’ve earned it. They’re simply better at search than their competitors. This has always been true. It remains true.
But when they use that natural monopoly to start pushing into other verticals, things get gray. Travel, restaurant reviews, etc, etc. We see more of it each year.
Just in time for the playoffs: The NBA on Tumblr.

Tech Tonic : BlackBerry founders no longer top dogs
As the founders and CEOs of Research in Motion, Jim Balsillie and Mike Lazaridis were kings of the smartphone not so long ago. How the mighty have fallen - BlackBerrys are now lagging behind iPhones and Androids in the race for smartphone supremacy and as a result, Balsillie and Lazaridis are no longer the top dogs at RIM, stepping down as CEOs. Anthony DeRosa doesn’t see a bright future for RIM or BlackBerry anytime soon as the fledgling company plays catch-up.
