Google throws down the gauntlet...

We all knew it was coming... and it looks like Google is now ready to go head-to-head against the big boy on the block... Microsoft. I can't wait to see how this pans out.

Google is going where no one has gone before, because aside from MS Windows, Microsoft's main money maker is MS Office... by far.

If Google is able to take Microsoft on, and potentially win... well that changes EVERYTHING. I predict that Microsoft will not take this too seriously at first (Steve Balmer does think he is invincible right now) so this will give Google the perfect opportunity to perfect their new Office suite and to roll it out with all the proper tools to help business move away from Microsoft. Then... when it's too late Balmer will wake up and start throwing some incredible amount of money at the problem. Google has a good chance to really change the world here... wow, what a great time to be alive.
