Google is finally all ready to put the axe to Wave

Google has had a lot of projects that never won the love of millions of Googlers. Google Wave was one of them. I was thrilled to use it when get I got into the early preview stage. But out of all the friends I have, only two joined the service and none of them were interested enough to use the service. So, left with no options, I started testing it by myself. It was no fun, actually.

So, Google Music is finally here. Did you watch the full event live on YouTube? Or did you just attend the event instead? In any way, if you dont know that the Mountain View Big G has brought to the table, you can relax, there isn’t anything much new in it. If you have been using the Google Music Beta app on your Android phone and the corresponding online service, you already know how it works. What’s new is the store in the Android Market where you can actually buy the music.

Google’s Eric Schmidt thinks Siri is a threat to Google’s search business

Siri is a very good product that Apple has introduced to its customers. You can literally talk to your phone and get voice responses back. Also, you can ask your phone to do whatever you want, and most importantly, you can search the web using it. That means, it is a very strong competitor to Google. Though Google had ruled out the possibility that Siri could have become a competitor, now Google’s chairman Eric Schmidt thinks otherwise.

Google Buzz is going away, but your posts are yours to keep

Its been some time since Google announced that it will taking down the Twitter-like service, Buzz, it started some time ago. Even though its a Google service and was integrated pretty nice into GMail, it dint take down Twitter by even a small percentage.
