Convergence
Google sits at one powerful nexus of convergence of all our current and future communication channels. Yes, it’s grand to be able to blog from an IM client (Google Talk), via a service provided by yet another group (IMified). And, yes, the practically limitless e-mail storage and quick’n'nice feature set makes interacting with e-mail and Usenet (actually, Google’s layer atop Usenet, Google Groups) painless.
[Note:Added via Wordpress UI] It’s not quite there yet. Orwell’s shadow sits at least an arm’s length away. I think.
