Why wouldn’t Google own all media?

No really, why wouldn’t Google own all media. I think it would be reliable, a monopole always gives you security. Think of our ancestors, who had to get by whith only one busline, one railway company, telephony company and electricity supplier. They were also reliable in their failures. They were just like a member of the family or a friend, or the dear old lady that you buy your vegetables from.

Now, to be serious, i think you realized i’m talking about the word of the day: Google wants to purchase Twitter. Of course they do. People use it like crazy, we started to search on twitter topics rather than googling things, it’s fast, snappy.

In one word, the best asset of the moment. And if there’s a thing people can’t do without, Google must own it, just like it happened with Feedburner for instance.

I see that readwriteweb published different opinion of media specialists. One says Google could easily reproduce the platform. So what? We do have other platforms, but they’re just not Twitter, as well as other search engines are not Google ;)

I say we prepare for our wonderful weekend and wish them the best of luck if it’s true: the Twitter guys would be getting 20 million, that means twenty cozy islands in the Pacific, and Google would get also what they want: one step closer to controlling all media :)).
