New Google Creations: “Gphone” & GDrive

28 11 2007

Always brewing up something new, Google has two hot new pieces of technological genius on their doorstep.

The first is the GDrive. This new device would let users store on Google’s own computer essentially all of the files users might keep on their personal computer hard drives (like digital music, videos and images, and word-processing documents).

Microsoft offers a program like this already, but for a fee. Google, as usual, has the means to offer this service for free, which is always a plus to drawing users to use their services. Reports are still uncertain to whether Google will be displaying ads in this storage service. But it would open a whole new world of online ads if Google chooses to do so.

The second is the “Gphone,” though not actually a phone in real matter. The Google phone is really called Android and is the “first truly open and comprehensive platform for mobile devices.” Android includes an operating system, user-interface and applications. Basically, Android has all of the software to run a mobile phone, but without the proprietary obstacles that have hindered mobile innovation.

Android is working cooperatively with Google’s Open Handset Alliance, which consists of more than 30 technological and mobile leaders including Motorola and T-Mobile. Through these partnerships with carriers, device manufacturers, developers, and others, Google hopes to enable an open ecosystem for the mobile world by creating a standard, open mobile software platform.
