[...] Incumbents get fat and lazy and start overlooking important features. Skype attacked the 1:1 communication space from the angle of audio/video communication – free calls anywhere in the world. MSN Messenger and Y! Messenger should have seen this opportunity, they ultimately matched Skype feature for feature but it was too late. Skype had become a verb for talking and video-conferencing.

Dead wrong. It’s the “monopolist dinosaurs” that are most likely to survive the regulations proposed by Google. It’s new, innovative companies — which Google sees as a threat — that are most likely to be killed. Which is the point, actually.
