Future
by Greg Cruey on September 29, 2009
David Harry has an insightful look into Google's creeping (and maybe creepy) footprint in the social web. It's an extensive (and maybe paranoid) look at Google's spreading web of social apps.
Behavioural targeting is a small step away from behavioural modification. Where is the line? At what point does it begin have an adverse affect on our very evolution as people? Not sure, but it does eat at me sometimes… We haven't even touched mobile (and geo) related avenues. I am often fascinated while at the same time often strangely concerned about what it all implies to our future (and my children after me).Harry is pretty thorough in his examination of Google's reach. Read his post and see what you think.

Within the near future, all websites will be linked as one big social network.

Interesting, and paranoid, theory. There is actually a presentation on Darwin and Facebook at the American Museum of Natural History in NY in a few days that could be interesting for people into this topic.
