Google is the new Microsoft. Uh-Oh.
Live MintGoogle Inc. prints money. Citigroup Inc. analyst Mark May says that 60% of Google’s mobile search revenue in 2014 came from the Apple deal. Despite all the talk about Google’s much vaunted moonshots—self-driving cars and Google Glass, internet-connected balloons and drone deliveries—the company is still basically a purveyor of cheap online ads that it sells at massive volume against the things that we search for online. The most valuable thing that the official moonshot incubator, Google X, has produced isn’t innovative products that will maintain Google’s search dominance. Meanwhile, Google could lose the international search market, given that big countries like China and Russia prefer homegrown products like Baidu and Yandex for that service.
