Google, watch out!

Throughout the last few years, Google has been attempting to play in the space where Facebook, MySpace have been creating waves. Yet, despite their acquisition of Orkut, Picasa, Google’s Social Web strategy never really came together. Somehow it doesn’t seamlessly fit into (what is now being called as) a Social OS over which everything rides off.

To complicate things further for them, let me make a wild prediction: Facebook will be the first real social web search backed with a semantic engine, that reaches widescale adoption. 

I will not make any further comments about why I think so — but by the second quarter of next year, the Google would have to seriously rethink on ways to protect its pie. Period.
