Every move Yahoo makes seems to ensure Google’s continued dominance. Maybe it’s just the geek in me, but I enjoy Google’s pure vision of the web over Yahoo’s jumbled marketing and lack of clear vision.

Google and Yahoo! vs. Java ME Developers and MVNOs

Wow, Yahoo! and Google are launching new smart clients and wireless services. I believe this annoucement to be huge… Google and Yahoo! providing their own Java ME smart clients that leverage their own back-end services directly, and/or offering MVN…

This seems in line with Tahoo’s linkup with TiVo. I still can’t figure out how a tiny company like Danger can make their own phone but Yahoo and Apple have to find partners. Hell, RIM was also tiny when the first Blackberries came out. As Stephen Colbert would say, this is an industry in need of BALLS!

Om, I just downloaded a java ME version of google maps or local onto my cell phone Sprint’s LG PM325. here are some screenshots – pretty cool. They have done a good job of the interface! I especially like the part of clicking on the map to get the address.

Just quit working for a company which made traffic maps for ur phone. I should tell you this much that google has cracked the UI completely this time. And I am sure – they can hope to generate some revenue here. Or open up the market and bring the prices for location based services – crashing down to a big ‘zero’!!!

Imagine all the mash ups now onto your phone! housing maps on your phone! now, thats neat next time you go around searching for an apt in the bayarea atleast!! Its time to wake up everyone … this is the real Web 2.0 convergence of information to your phone is a simple and apt way …
