It is a great read, click the above link to the article by Clint Boulton, who tells in details about
Enterprise Applications: 10 Companies We Want to See Google Buy
- Twitter: Not just to tell what Google is doing at what place, but to have a the real-time search conversation platform.
- Myspace
- Salesforce.com
- ClearWire
- Priceline.com
- Rearden Commerce:the leading personal assistant site for businesses
- TripIt. Well, maybe even 800trips.com
- MindJet: “a mind mapping and visual collaboration tool for project management”
- Hunch: “a crowd-sourcing site”. To understand what crowdsourcing is, you may want to check out http://www.answers.com/crowdsourcing. Examples:Amazon.com’s Mechanical Turk www.mturk.com, InnoCentive www.innocentive.com, Google Answers (Google Answers is no longer accepting questions), Baidu Answers(zhidao.baidu.com)
