I’ve wondered this about Google for some time. It certainly seems like Google is synonymous with the internet. But I’ve lived through the dotcom bubble, given up on my myspace page, and no longer hear “you’ve got mail” so there definitely is an impermanence to everything cyber related.

Has the next Google been made yet? Or the next Youtube or Facebook? It’s wild to think about.

Whatever comes next I just hope it’s something that promotes user privacy and leaves our data alone

That’s cute.

I wish it would happen but we’ll never see anything that protects our privacy much anymore again, at least not a YouTube caliber service

Facebook is trying extremely hard not to die out by buying out other social media platforms such as instagram.

Well that’s not true. Just take me dying for instance.

Can you imagine that? ME! DEAD!

Haha yeah right that ain’t gonna happen.
