Is Google OS a SharePoint Killer?

It’s early days, really early days… but what if, just what if Google OS delivers all the collaboration and business functionality you actually need:

  • Blog
  • Wiki
  • Email
  • Documents
  • Team Collaboration
  • Spreadsheets
  • Data
  • etc

 

How far away from that are we, they have all the apps now… well not very far at all by the sounds of it (http://mashable.com/2009/11/19/google-chrome-os-launch/) and although the SharePoint bashing is usually a crock-o-crap and I am definitely a fan, maybe just maybe, a device that boots really quickly, allowing individual, global and team working may just be the thing that seriously challenges Microsoft SharePoint.

All Google OS needs is proper integration between it’s business and collaboration services and Microsoft will have a proper fight on their hands, this will take time, I think it’s a 3 year battle, but Google OS v2 will definitely be the one to watch!

Just thinking…

Just saying…
