The Politico reported that Google's CEO Eric Schmidt donated $1 million to Sen. Obama's campaign during the presidential run albeit Google released a statement saying that it is a neutral company and that Eric's decision was a personal one.
This has sent shivers down the spine of Microsoft and other Google competitors. "[Google] terrifies Microsoft." According to one Dem lobbyist who knows Google well from the inside. The Dem also said "there's a reason why people are scared to death by Google."
I think this illustrates the new heights Google will reach in 2009. With the popular Gmail, Google Android, Youtube, and other highly popular services, Google's internet empire will not stop growing anytime soon. Now that Google has reached a new level, the next President, it may become impossible for Microsoft to take the lead once again. For rivals, Google's base may just have become too great and its ambitions too high to compete with. Isn't it amazing how before we know it, Google will take over our lives? Oh, wait it already has!
