...BUT whats exciting is that Google is releasing Android - the platform over which there could be many many gPhones.
Android is an open source platform that will help developers develop new applications for the mobile phone. If what I understand of the Android is right, it seems to me that the mashups are going to become a core part of mobile phones too! I could have my own customized combination of software mashups on my phone like we all do on Facebook!
See the demo of the android (In the video, Sergey Brin says, "...I'd like to tell you about something I'm really excited about" in the most non-enthusiastic way... thats not too inspiring for 5th richest guy on the Forbes400 list.)
Netvibes the webservice that allows you to make your own personalized feed aggregator/startup page has done it again!
However there is still one thing that has yet to be worked out and that is the screen size of the content. Although the user can glance at the page without scrolling and absorb most of the information, at times you still have to scroll horizontally to look for information that gets cut off or you expect to be there but isn't there in the vertical screen.
I hope the designers at Netvibes as working on the ASAP because it won't be too long before the aha! wears out and people start pointing fingers! :) Until then... enjoy!!
