I have some comments on the Cringely article <A HREF="http://glinden.blogspot.com/2005/11/data-center-in-trailer.html" REL="nofollow">here</A>.<BR/><BR/>In general, I'm not sure about his vision for how these things tie together. I'm not even sure they do tie together.<BR/><BR/>My impression is that Google's strategy is more about experimenting in many directions than about a coordinated thrust in one.<BR/><BR/>I doubt they have a master plan. I am not sure they have enough information about what works and what does not work to do that.Greg Lindenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09216403000599463072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6569681.post-1147337263244223802006-05-11T01:47:00.000-07:002006-05-11T01:47:00.000-07:00Insomnia strikes us all.But my real question is WH...Insomnia strikes us all.<BR/><BR/>But my real question is WHAT or HOW do you think this ties in with<BR/>Google's<BR/>========<BR/>*Dark fiber to local pops<BR/>*data center in a tractor trailer<BR/>*the Google-TV served local ads<BR/>*the google hardware appliance (customer buy in for say 50.00)<BR/>and this...(sql)<BR/><BR/>It seems that they STILL all tie together, and this distributed SQL cluster is part of the GLOBAL master plan...<BR/><BR/>ideas??Mark Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08713628570394054338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6569681.post-1147311804009788852006-05-10T18:43:00.000-07:002006-05-10T18:43:00.000-07:00Hi, Mark.
