...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.)
An interesting video critiquing how we have come to organize and understand information in todays world !
There have been many experiments on innovating email but
this takes the cake! I An email mailbox represented as a 3D, virtual
LAX airport. Check it out yourself on the 3D Mailbox site.The best thing I like about this program is that based on the origin or destination of
the email, each message is depicted by any of over 80 world airlines
(e.g. for India it comes via. Air India, UK, it comes via Virgin or British Airways). Emails with
attachments are carried by the couriers: FedEx, UPS, DHL, and CargoLux. There is also a seperate jet for spam mail.
This seems to be a downloadable program and needs to be bought. I
really wonder how many people must be using this currently. To me
things like this almost seem too gimmicky and although this would be a
great information visualisation student project, I don't think many
peolple will use it. I'm sure Intel Dual Core weren't built to spend
processing power on such apps!
So..your Inbox is an airport ! Now I wonder if it also simulates bandwidth speed delays or slow process speed delays as fog delays and other annoying delays that makes airports hell !! :) Imagine wanting to send an urgent mail and receiving a message - "We regret to announce the one-hour delay in departure of 20:55 Flight GM203 leaving for Peter Petrelli's inbox . The flight will now depart only at 21:55" ! :)
