I think Google has good intentions, but a company that large with so much influence is going to do evil whether they intend to or not by nature of thinking that their solution is better and trying to make it widely available

 

I have been told that the Google apps licenses says that they own the data you create online, does anyone know if that is true?

Upside is the world definitely needs a better browser interface

 

Downside is Google is becoming dangerously like an evil empire, wanting all of our apps and data and communications in their framework……
