Google predictions

I managed to predict Google-base, so lets see if I can predict more googly stuff...

1. Centralized bookmarks, currently you can bookmark (star) websites with google-reader and google personalized search. This will become one system. On top of that google will add a star to its toolbar:



Update (31-01-2006): Came true, see the google toolbar beta :P

2. Blogger.com will use google accounts (easy one).

Update (07-03-2006): There already is this: https://www.google.com/accounts/ServiceLogin?service=blogger

Update 17-10-2006: Yes, spot on!

3. API for google-login system (like Microsoft Passport but a lot cheaper). Btw, you can already do this if you use the Jabber protocol (with http://cjphp.netflint.net/ for example).



Update 17-10-2006: Yes!

4. Search within Gmail attachments. View attachments as html was of course just step one.

5. More stars! Star videos, star contacts and stars everywhere (joy).

Update (13-6-2006): This is now posible through Search History.

Update 17-10-2006: Yes yes more coming

6. Online storage of Google Talk conversations (searchable from gmail)

Update (31-01-2006): Came true, see this help page for more information.

7. More integration of GMail and Google Talk like Google Talk Web (webbased google talk client).

Update (31-01-2006): Came true, isn't activated for every account and doesn't work for https but it will be live shortly. See this page for more information.

Update 17-10-2006: Is live for everyone, yes yes

8. Upload complete photo-albums to blogger.com with Picasa.

Update (16-4-2006): This is posible but they added a limit (not smart).

Update 17-10-2006: Upload to picasaweb also posible

9. Buy stuff in the google-shop with your addsense profit (nice for bloggers with only a small profit).

Update 17-10-2006: Looks a bit like google checkout...

10. Video integration in Google talk.



11. Play video's from video.google.com direct from a blog-post (blogger.com and video.google.com integration).

Update (31-1-2006): Came true, copy paste the html-code from any google video.

12. Upload videos through Picasa (and create a corresponding blog-post).

Update 17-10-2006: Yes (no blog post yet)

13. Link to a time-frame on google.video.com

Update 17-10-2006: spot on

14. Import pop-mail into gmail.

15. Import old outlook (express) e-mail archives into gmail (like gexodus).

16. Integrate blogger with google talk (like spaces of msn), but this will not happen before the release of the enterprise version of google-talk.

17. Google-talk enterprise and gmail-enterprise, which includes an upgrade for the Google Search Appliance.

18. Skype-in/out functionality for google-talk (dark fiber anyone?).

19. WinFs-like features in Google Desktop (searchable meta information).

20. Calender.google.com will be a personal calendar, rss for future events so to speak. Tapping into your gmail contacts and integrating with gmail.

Update (16-4-2006): Spot on! :D

21. Jabber transport will be enabled for google-talk but invitations must be send trough gmail.

Update (31-1-2006): Came true, jabber transport is enabled and i am talking to my msn-buddy's trough google-talk.

22. Internet storage for your files (official version of the gmail drive).

Update (07-03-2006): There is already this: http://glinden.blogspot.com/2006/03/in-world-with-infinite-storage.html

Update 17-10-2006: Platypus!


Update 17-10-2006: Currently I got 13/22 right

I'd like to see preferences for all Google services saved in my Google account instead of in Cookoes. For example, Google Search.

Oh, and Google Calendar!
 
what about dee wallet man?
 
calendar.google.com is already up!!!
 
#13 has come true! You can link within a google video to a particular time.

See Philip p Lenssen's post.
