Entering the Google Zone

17 October 2008 5 Comments

Big Brother Google bought Feedburner last year, but I was still startled when I went to Feedburner today to check my stats and got a Google login page!

They’ve also changed my account so I have to log in with my Google account instead of my Feedburner account name and password.

I get a creepy 1984 feeling at times like this.

Kind of like how Walmart seems to be taking over the physical plane, Google is gathering up all of cyberspace for its own…

    people like google a lot. I dont because it is becoming stronger and stronger monopolising the market more and more…did you check your statistics recently? i bet that you, like me, have google sending you almost 90% of your traffic…isn’t that worrying enough for you?

    @Web Talk – it does creep me out. I try to get traffic from various sources for all my sites so they are not totally depend upon Google, and only 10% of the Diva traffic comes from there.

    Google was once small, like all when your small, you tend to be small and friendly, but when your become big you like to boss people around because you have the power to do so.
