Google does “own” a web browser. It’s called Firefox. Google pays Mozilla Corporation for Google searches, so it is behooven for Mozilla to highlight Google in their browser and search box. I don’t Google very much — results are not as accurate as other search engines for my searches — I get too much spam. Also, I hate ads.

It’s only a matter of time. Google have a huge cash reserve, and Yahoo wouldn’t want to be left out.

I would say that if Microsoft, Yahoo and Google had their own browser, there would certainly be a great leap forward in the way the future browsers would perform.

Using your words, it would “bring on the next wave of innovation and technological advancement”. I have no doubts about it.

The question is, will it happen?

Well, if Yahoo bought Flock, and then Google bought Opera – what would happen with the development of web browsers in the future? Would innovation be stiffled, or would it bring on the next big wave of innovation and technological advancement?

Hi Matt:

You have a very good point regarding the strategic of Yahoo gobbling Flock. Your arguments are rock solid.

In my opinion, Opera and Flock would be excellent companies to be purchased by Google or Yahoo. Their market share would increase exponentially.

Cheers,

Omar.-
