Why Google Pays 10 Billion USD to Its Competitor Mozilla?

To Make Google as the default search engine, Google and Mozilla will renew the cooperation agreement at around 10 billion USD. In the case of haveing their own web browser "Chrome", Google's cooperation with Mozilla is understood as a kind of support to their competitor with their money. But Why?

On one hand, Firefox still has millions of users and this agreement means that millions of users will use Google as the default search engine when they are using Firefox. And using Google to search means Google can display ads and that means money to Google.

But 3 billion per year, that is 3 times more than the price in the agreement they signed in 2008. What's interesting is that Google released Chrome after they signed the agreement in 2008. From a common point of view, with the raise of the Chrome's share in web browser market, they should reach an agreement at a lower price. Although Firefox still takes up 1/3 of the web broswer market, their share is going down and the reason is Chrome.

Chrome is like a beast in the market of browser, it is swallowing the share of IE and also Firefox at the same time. Actually, according the the data from StatCounter, Firefox's share in browser market is lower than 2008. Think about it. Aug, 2008, 26.08% of people were using Firefox as their browser, 68.91% were using IE and at that time, Chrome was not released by Google. Last month, 25.23% of people were using Firefox as their default web browser and 40.63% of them were using IE. Chrome took 25.69% of the market. It's true that more people are choosing Chrome as their default web browser than choosing Firefox.

So Google will pay 3 times money, while Firefox's share in browser market is lower than 2008. Why they do that?

The first reason comes to my mind is the competition. Because of the bid. Microsoft wants Bing become the default search engine of Firefox. And it is really interesting that Yahoo also takes part in the bid and Yahoo's search engine is from Bing. So one reason is that Google spend money to let Microsoft and Yahoo out of the game. It's possible.

Microsoft spends billions of USD to try to compete with Google in search engine market. One of the result of this is that Google and Bing swallow Yahoo's share in search engine market together. Now Bing provides the result of Yahoo's search engine, so Bing hurts itself. Nowadays, Bing and Yahoo take the same percent of the search engine market share and Bing is paying this. Here I have to say that Bing and Firefox's cooperation is do useful to Bing. Let's say that Bing know that and when they talking about the cooperation, they are not cheapskate, but they are not that generous and will pay 3 billion a year. Because from the market share, 3 billion is a little crazy.

So why Google still pay this high price to Firefox? Analyst said that compare with the income from displaying ads through Firefox and competition with Bing, avoiding the problem of anti-monopoly after Chrome's share continue growing is the real problem Google cares.

It's not crazy, actually if now it is not the reason, it will be the reason in future. So far, it is relatively safe for Google's browser market in anti-monopoly. They are not like Microsoft and Apple, Google can not control the default browser in any kind of operation system. However, the problem will become more and more serious with the large download of Chrome from google.com and the success of Chrome OS. I think there will be a larger pressure from mobile devices. Now, web browser on Android devices looks like a normal browser, with more and more element from Chrome are added to it. It will become the real Chrome some day.

That means Google has a dominant operation system (Android) to promote their web browser. That will bring investigation from anti-monopoly just like Microsoft few years ago. But if Google pays money to support Mozilla and Firefox, it's another question. Let's wait and see.

For Reasons for Apple to Launch The 7.85 inch iPad

On this Friday, there was a rumor from Apple supply chain that Apple will launch the 7.85 inch Tablet PC in late 2012. The technology blog GigaOm make a analysis why Apple should promote the small dimension Tablet PC.


Imaginary 7 inch iPad
Athough Apple is leading the Consumer Tablet PC market, and sales of iPad are far above Android Tablet PC, there are still four reasons why Aplle should launch the smaller screen Tablet PC.

First, Smaller Tablet PC is more portable

The smaller size tablet PC with higher frequency of ultilization, can be used in more situations. For example, the Samsung 7 inch Galaxy Tab tablet PC can be carried with you, but iPad is inconvenient in carrying. When the users sit in the yard, or go to Starbucks, iPad can well meet your needs. But in the process of moving, 7 inch flat panel computer is more convenient. The tablet can be packed in your pants or jacket pocket, but iPad can't. Smaller size also makes weight lighter.

Second, Outstanding 7 inch Tablet PC has already been available

Although 7 inch Galaxy Tab brings much convenience, there are still some disadvantages compared with iPad. However, some better 7 inch Tablet PCs have been available such as bookstore Nook tablet PC and Amazon's Kindle Fire tablet PC. The two products are very popular in this Christmas season. Portability is one of advantages, but more important is the lower price. These 7 inch flat panel computers sell for $199 to $249. Although these tablets can only provide 80% functions of iPad, the price occupies only 40% of it. Maybe Aplle will not throw away the market to Bookstore and Amazon manufactures.

Third, iPod Touch has been less attractive than ever

Some people think that since iPod Tough exists, there is no necessary for Apple to launch the smaller iPad, but this is just one of the reasons that Apple should launch the smaller iPad. As Apple communicates with more and more Operators, consumers are purchasing iPhone more, leading the iPod Touch sales gradually slide down. Some Android mobile phone users may purchase iPod Touch as a supplement, but iPhone users will not do so. Recently, the investment put into iPod Touch is less and less, among the product line update items only increases the white version. This suggests that, as one product line, iPod Touch is gradually towards the end.

Fourth, Price of the smaller iPad can be reduced to the level of iPod Touch

If Apple eventually gave up iPod Touch, it will be lack of products whose price is from 199 to 399 dollars. Apple can launch the small size iPad, whose price is $199, to compete with Kindle Fire. Similar to iPod Touch and the current iPad, the $199 iPad can be the product of WiFi version unrelated to operators, and with 3G module version, the price will be improved. To those consumers, who wish to obtain iPad experience and think price of $499 is too high, 199 to $399 products will meet their needs. Industry insiders guess that, the price of smaller size iPad may be associated with iPod Touch, while the larger storage capacity will have the higher price. Although the launch of small size iPad is appropriate, it does not mean that the current 10 inch iPad is not good. However, the small size iPad has a living space. The best opportunity for Apple to launch the small size iPad will be in September, 2012, the traditional iPod conference. This will help Apple develop better the next Christmas market.

Microsoft's New OneNote and Lync Apps for iPad, iPhone

On December 12, Microsoft released the new OneNote app for iPad and an updated app for other iOS devices like iPhone, iPod touch, etc. Meanwhile, Microsoft made available its Lync 2010 client app for Windows Phone, and the new Lync clients for iPhone, iPad, Android and Nokia Symbian have been submitted to their respective mobile app marketplaces and will be available as soon as they have been approved.

"Since the launch of OneNote for iPhone nearly a year ago, a recurring request from our customers has been for a version that can be used more easily on the iPad's larger screen," Microsoft said in a blog post. "We're happy to announce that today's new release of OneNote for iOS devices includes a version that's tailored for the iPad." Microsoft updated the app with better navigation, table viewing and performance. More significantly, Microsoft released a whole new version that fills up the greater real estate on an iPad screen. Previously, iPad users would have to use a blown-up version of the iPhone OneNote app, which didn't look very appealing and wasn't optimized for a larger device.

OneNote notebooks are stored via Microsoft SkyDrive. "Your own cloud-based SkyDrive account lets you easily sync all of your notebooks across all of your devices, so they're always up-to-date and accessible from virtually anywhere on your iPhone, your iPad, your Web browser, or your computer," Microsoft said. Today's 1.3 update provides support for the iPad and iPad 2. Other new features, which also apply to the iPhone, include: localization into several new languages and markets; tabbed user interface; quick note creation in the Unfiled Notes section; table rendering; improved Windows Live sign-in experience; the option to sync notebooks only over a Wi-Fi connection; and integrated upgrade option.

Lync, the Microsoft's successor to Office Communications Server, is the Microsoft's unified communications platform that the company launched a year ago. Lync provides enterprise instant-messaging, VOIP and conferencing. There is also a Microsoft-hosted version of Lync that is available as a standalone service and part of Office 365 that is known as Lync Online. According to the Microsoft, the new Lync mobile client allows instant messaging, call-related features and audio conferencing using a Lync ID, which is dependent on an organization having Lync 2010 Server installed. The mobile client must be provisioned by the Lync server administrator first, and that will enable users to download and begin using the various Lync 2010 mobile apps, a Microsoft unified communications team blog explained.

However, Apple devices must be running iOS 4.3 or higher to access OneNote 1.3, and users must sign up for a free Windows Live account. The app is free to download and users get up to 500 free notes. After that, it's $4.99 for unlimited use on the iPhone and $14.99 for unlimited use on the iPad. Meanwhile, if you were hoping for more official word today on some kind of Microsoft Office suite on the iPad, don't hold your breath. Microsoft still are not commenting on rumors that Office for the iPad will be out in some form in 2012.

Microsoft releases SkyDrive App for Windows phone and iPhone

Microsoft's love affair with iOS isn't over yet. It was OneNote and a “real soon now” commitment on its Lync unified-communications client for the iPad this Monday. Microsoft also announced this week that its Kinectimals game is available for the iPad and iPhone. On December 13, Microsoft made yet another Apple-focused announcement: An iOS version of SkyDrive for iPhone.

Users of Microsoft's SkyDrive cloud storage service now have another way to access and share their files – the newly released SkyDrive App for both Windows phone and iOS devices, which are intended to complement SkyDrive.com's existing mobile interface. "As devices proliferate, having a great experience on the Web is only one piece of a pretty complex puzzle," Microsoft's Mike Torres wrote. "People are choosing where to put their files based on how portable and accessible they are across the various devices they use, therefore, it's critical that we continue to extend the SkyDrive experience to the devices you use every day."

Microsoft's Mike Torres said: "Many still want the full SkyDrive experience from Windows phone, including tasks like browsing their entire SkyDrive, sharing links to folders or files, deleting files, and creating folders." The SkyDrive App allows you to view all of the files and folders in your SkyDrive and those that have been shared with you by others. You can view documents and pictures, create and delete folders, delete files, email links to files and folders (giving recipients either read-only or read-and-write permissions to the file), and download and upload pictures. Moving and renaming files and folders don’t appear to be possible on either platform, however. As a result, phones running Windows Phone 7.5 can now download the SkyDrive App from the Windows phone Marketplace and do just that. For those on iOS, the same app was also released in the App Store.

SkyDrive is a potential competitor in the mobile consumer space with Apple's iCloud, which is available for free with iOS 5. Microsoft's SkyDrive efforts appear to be part of its general market push into a world of connected devices that will increasingly be mobile. It also squares with the "three-screens and a cloud" vision laid out when Ray Ozzie was Microsoft's chief software architect. The idea is to synchronized data across devices. SkyDrive is already facilitating that, in part, by enabling single sign-on capabilities across devices.

Microsoft explained late last month that it has made sharing via SkyDrive more "app-centric." It already enables document collaborations via some of its Office Web Apps, although its "coauthoring" feature used with the Word Web App doesn't exactly work in real time. Other improvements made earlier this year to SkyDrive include simplifications to accessing folder directories and a speeded-up photo browsing experience, as well as the use of AJAX and HTML 5 technologies to improve the user experience. Microsoft has explained that some of the SkyDrive features it built earlier were just too complex, but it is listening to customer feedback and making improvements.

Seven Reasons For Android's Inability to Dominate The Tablet Market---Encounter a Pincer Attack

IT Website eWeek today writes articles to say, although Android can get many benefits from the Tablet market, due to the lack of security, as well as the pincer attack between iOS and Windows 8 and many other factors, the system can not dominate the market.

The following is the full text:

The Tablet PC market is not friendly enough to Google's Android operating system. Over the past years, Apple iPad met the needs of more and more consumers in tablet PC field. The Samsung Galaxy Tab, Dell Streak and many other Android devices only lying on the shelf to collect dust. Of course, some people think this situation will get better. In order to prove this point, researchers and analysts have pointed out, Android started relatively slowly in intelligent mobile phone market, but in the end he gets a dominant share.

But so far, Android has not yet succeeded in tablet PC. Although Android System can certainly have a share of this market, there is little probability for him to get the dominance. Furthermore, from the current situation, Android may become one of the losers in the tablet PC market. The reasons are as follows:

First, Lack of Security.

Although some consumers refused to recognize the Android security problems, for enterprise users, it is particularly worthy of attention. Therefore, as iPad and Windows 8 enters the market, Android will be left behind. Over time, it will have a profound negative impact on the penetration rate of this system.

Second, iPad's Unshakable Status

iPad now dominates the tablet PC market. Some researchers think, this dominance will end up under the pressure of competition and will yield. But they were wrong, iPad won the favor of users, and this trend in the coming years will last a long time. The Android tablet will not constitute big threat to iPad's Status.

Third, iOS is More Useful

Android operating system is not bad, but it is not iOS. IPad ultra-high sales have explained this point. Apple iOS is easy to operate, and will not suffer the security problem. Its functions also come first on the list. Android beehive platform in many aspect falls behind iOS. Before all these get better, Android can only be envious.


Fourth, Windows 8 Adopts the same Strategy

Although Tablet PC mainly focused on Apple and Google on the body, you can't neglect that Windows 8 will also be joined in the competition. When its system released, it will have a great impact on Android. Like Google, Microsoft also provides major manufacturers the operating system, this leads the two companies to be a rivalry. Considering the Windows' success of in previous history, it is really worth to paying attention to how Android challenge Microsoft.

Fifth, Manufacturers are looking forward to Windows 8

When considering Microsoft 's mobile strategy, we have to mention another point where many manufactures have shown good attitude towards Microsoft---they plan to launch Windows 8 tablet PC. In fact, Dell, HP, and Asus have made clear intention. Over the next few months, there will be more companies adopting the same strategy. Once the tendency forms, Google has to worry about whether the manufacturer is willing to produce Windows 8 and Android tablet PC at the same time. This is unlikely, especially when Windows 8 tablet outsold Android.

Sixth, Sales Decides all

This year the global computer sales volume has reached tens millions, and manufacturers are all chasing apple closely. But compared with apple, Android sales volume is very low. Once Microsoft enters this market, it will be worse. While Google has its own story, the tablet PC's bad sales make Android manufacturers still rather tense.

Seventh, Consumers' Confusion

Google provides a number of different versions of the Android system, this decision is very bad. In addition, Google also allows the manufacturers to customize the operating system, but it has become a disadvantage in the tablet computing field. IPad 's success largely depends on the users know what iOS can provide. But in the intelligent mobile phone using Gingerbread system, users can get lost. This is the mistake in Google's strategy, and to a great extent, it will cause serious impact.

Microsoft updates Xbox 360, adding more contents to enrich your life

Microsoft releases a new Xbox 360 dashboard update to all Xbox users in this week, and Xbox uses can enjoy much more contents apart from games. The Xbox console's various channels now headline the top of the screen, listing the familiar "games," "music" and "video" sections between the new Bing search feature and the console's settings page. A few of the channels have been renamed -- "My Xbox" is now "home" and a very Zune-esque "social" replaces "friends." Core content hasn't changed much, but the way you access it has, with yesterday's single-file tiles retired in favor of single page Metro layouts, packing more than twice as much information on screen as the previous Dashboard.

The contemporary update keeps the Metro, heavy on typography and flat squares and live tiles and swiping, the Metro lives in Xbox, Windows Phone 7 and the upcoming Windows 8, it's a fresh yet familiar take on UI. Metro looks so good and easy-to-use whether you already know how to use it or you've never used it before. With Metro on Xbox, Microsoft can elegantly pack more contents onto one screen. A horizontal menu details the various categories on your Xbox (Games, Video, Music, Apps, etc.) with each category getting its own hub organized neatly with independent tiles of content.

In addition, the Xbox companion application is powered by Microsoft’s Bing search engine. The search functionality allows you to search the entire Xbox Live catalog of TV shows, movies, music, games and apps on your Windows Phone device. Once you’ve searched a title, you can find out more information about it, and launch it on your Xbox from your handset, controlling it with the usual play, pause, rewind and fast forward functions we’re all used to. By bundling all digital subscriptions and content through the Xbox 360, Microsoft wants to make sure your gaming console is at the heart of your entertainment center. Xbox Live subscribers and subscribers of these digital services won't have access to much in the way of new content, but it will all be centralized in one location. Microsoft has also baked in deeper voice control of the console for consumers using its Kinect sensor. The Kinect is better known as motion-controller that gives gamers the ability to use gestures to play games. But Kinect also has a microphone array in it. When Kinect debuted last year, gamers could use their voice for some limited voice-controlled navigation.

In a word, the move is part of a growing effort by media companies to bring some 21st-century pizzazz to the experience of navigating and watching television, a medium that is largely watched using traditional remote controls and set-top boxes that have changed little in the past 10 years. Xboxes are already 57 million households worldwide, so the decision to update such a gigantic installed base is a shrewd move on Microsoft’s part. Nonetheless, it remains to be seen whether the Xbox can juice the Windows Phone platform, which could use a serious boost in adoption.

Microsoft will open Windows store for Metro-style Windows 8 App in February

Microsoft on Tuesday brought its Windows 8 road show to San Francisco, where the company previewed its upcoming Windows Store for app developers and media. They will open the online marketplace for Metro-style Windows 8 application in late February 2012. The key ingredients of the Windows Store are easy app discovery from within and without the online marketplace, built-in app trials with quick upgrade paths, support for both x86 and ARM-based hardware, and a flexible business model, Microsoft's Antoine Leblond said.

With Apple's Mac App Store and iTunes Store already operational and selling both computer and tablet applications, Microsoft is keen to highlight the differences and promises to make an application store that was more flexible, more transparent, and ultimately more lucrative for developers than Apple's. The Windows Store will make it easy for Windows customers to find, try and buy useful, high-quality apps from practically anywhere in the world. With code-named "Windows 8" and the Windows Store, developers can enjoy a built-in distribution and update mechanism for their apps. Built using HTML5 and JavaScript, the Windows Store is a fast, fluid, full-screen Metro-style app taking advantage of the Metro-style design principles inspired in Windows 8. Easy to build for, submit to and sell through, the Windows Store is designed with app discoverability and visibility in mind. The Windows Store will open its virtual doors to consumers and begin allowing for submission of free apps for Windows 8 Beta in late February next year.

The Windows Store will support both free and paid applications, with paid applications ranging from $1.49 to $999. As with Microsoft's Windows Phone Marketplace, developers can offer free trials, with integrated support for converting trials to full versions. Microsoft will provide its own advertising and in-app purchase infrastructure, but these will be strictly optional, if a developer wants to use a different ad network, or its own subscription and billing system, that's not a problem. With a standard validation process that developers can use even before they make their submission and an online tracker that tells them which phase their application is in and how long they can expect the process to take. But money is, for many developers, the most important feature of any online store. The Windows Store will take a 30 percent cut of application sales, just like Apple's store.

The Windows Store follows the path of Apple's Mac App Store, a software marketplace that's built into Mac OS X. That's provided a way for customers to quickly download both free and paid applications for their computers. Microsoft will offer the app marketplace around the world. Leblond said it will support more than 100 languages in 231 different markets. With the dominant operating system software as a lure, the Windows Store could evolve into a meaningful revenue generator for the company, which rang up just shy of $70 billion in the last fiscal year.

The Competition of Indoor Navigation

I believe most of you have the same experience that I have. When you fist step in a new building, airport or school, you will feel loss and do not know what to do first and where to go. For example, you are in a hospital. It is difficult for you to find the place you want to go. Many hospital use a not that effective way to solve this problem, of course, it does not work at most of the time. They just set different kinds of sign post or just use different colors to guide people. However, now we have a really nice way to solve this problem, using intelligent map system in mobile phone. It makes it's easy to find some places in a building and other indoor places.

In the latest Android map, it includes US IKEA and Macy's and other 18 airport's detailed layout. Almost at the same time, Nokia announced they will release indoor map suing Bluetooth 4.0. Although use two totally different technology, we can smell that the war of indoor map is already begin.

For a long time, Bluetooth has a poor reputation. It maybe because that the headphone looks not like a human or something else. It makes people feel weird. However, Bluetooth is actually a really nice technology: powerful, simple, cheap. And it will be much more smart after the release of Bluetooth 4.0. Nokia's Location Extension Protocol uses the connection of locator transmitter on the ceiling and Bluetooth 4.0. And triangulation method that is similar to GPS. Through this way, your mobile phone can find the place you want to go accurately. It is said that the degree of precision is less than 8 inches.

Nokia has spent over one billion euros and hope this breakthrough technology will bring superority in the competiton of indoor map. They have also discovered the different application of this tech, from game to indoor navigation. Nokia is now trying their best to persuade Bluetooth SIG to make one uniform standard and hope this kind of mobile phone can come out into market in 2013.

Just like that if there is no specific map, GPS can not work, the indoor navigation system can not work without a detailed architectural and structural drawings. Now Google allows uses to upload or add architectural and structural drawings to Google Maps as they do the same to SketchUp. This is a simple process, users just need upload the picture of the floor's layout and then connect with satellite images of Google Maps. Through this way, Google not only gets many users' support, uploading indoor maps data day and night, they also uses the data for other users, such as services based on location and ads based on location.

What I have said above is not considering the crime, privacy and other safe question. People are now really sensitive to Google Street View. I believe this kind of indoor map data will bring bigger controversy. In conclusion, we need indoor navigation when we are in a strange building to find places fast. However, we need to use it carefully. Hope Google and Nokia will solve these problems and provide us indoor navigation one day.
