Will Google say Hello to IM?

Meaningless banter...: Google better watch out. The desktop and IM are purely Microsoft's. Google is risking getting crushed and destroyed like Netscape by venturing intol areas they do not belong. My rep and I were discussing ways Microsoft should confront this, such as integrating IM into the core OS and embedding MSN IM into all Microsoft applications like Word and Outlook. Microsoft should embed IM into the OS like IE and Windows Media Player. It makes the OS more secure while allowing users to enjoy a fully integrated experience. Google is in deep trouble here.; Posted by: Mike Cox Posted on: 10/16/04 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
