  • Sticking it to the man: MS vs. Google


    I'm sure most of you have heard the big debate of Google trying to compete with Microsoft in the OS (Operating System) market. If you haven't, I'll bring you up to speed and input some ideas here and there.

    It all started when Microsoft invented a search engine named "Bing." Now from what I've read, Bing has a lot of advantages so far. Bing uses cosmetics to provide advertisers with a new way to communicate with the public over the internet. The placement of the advertisements and the way they look and feel is a huge leap over the search engines that people are used to. Due to this invention, Google most likely sharted. Somewhere between wiping and changing underwear, Google hatched a brilliant idea: fight back by inventing a new OS! This OS will be free, or so I'm told, and will be more user friendly than Linux.

    Now I'm definitely rooting for Google, because I believe that Microsoft just pushes their weight around for no reason really. Here is why:



    Microsoft released the Zune to compete with Apple's Ipod. Now call me crazy, but I seriously believe the Zune is packed full of unnecessary crap. First, the backround. Why do we need one? Is it going to make me feel at ease to have some compelling image pop up on my screen when I turn on my mp3 device? Will it work faster because of the backround? My answers are no. Purely cosmetic. Second, the wireless zune community music sharing. Do you want to share your music with me? Mostly likely no. I don't want to hear "My heart bleeding" anyways. FM radio isn't a must have. I have my car for that. I have to stick with Alex from Grandma's boy when he said, "I just want a bag of fucking weed." Seriously people, sometimes cosmetics just doesn't do anything but make things flashy.

    I'm not getting into the console wars because I'm lazy. It's really a stalemate there anyway. Moving along, the cosmetics do serve a purpose on the search engine, but for people that just want "a bag of weed" it doesn't. I mostly search the internet for what I want, not what they advertise. Sometimes I can only think of Microsoft dressing up as Thomas Edison for a Halloween party and doing a light bulb trick while they are there. Coincidently, no one said anything about Google dressing up as Heinrich Goebel (read why this is remotely funny).


    This message is not brought to you by Megan Fox. Sorry fellas, the emo tattoos of some boy breaking her heart just doesn't do it for me. Also she thinks she is too "good" to play Wonder Woman, I suppose "Jennifer's Body" is so much better. Another fun fact, she complained that she didn't get to show off her acting range, which is hilarious cause I thought tits just bouncing up and down was the dialogue.
