Google 點解想收購 WhatsApp?

事實是,Google用盡方法谷人去用Google+,我的YouTube、Google Reader、Picasa Web Album的使用經驗,通通因為「Google+」這件新產品,而受到或多或少的影響。 YouTube:統一用戶profile Google Reader: 先取消shared item,繼而整個Reader退休 Picasa Web Album: 整個變成Google+ Photo 很明顯,Google每一步的目標,都是將其他Google產品的用戶轉化成Google+ 用戶,想推動更多人使用Google+。 此刻Google最需要是什麼? 不同往時,Facebook的王國架設在firewall以內,並沒有向Google開放社交網絡上的內容和數據。Google不可以再靠「bot」自動搜挖社交網絡上的內容,從而提供贊助內容的配對。同時,人們的注意力,繼續從網站、博客,不斷轉移到社交媒體、手機Apps,要知道,手機Apps的對話也是Google所不能接觸的(想想WeChat、Whatsapp的聊天紀錄和內容),所以Google需要增加集團在Social和Mobile兩個範疇的本錢。收購是最有效率的方法。 如果Google收購Whatsapp,我認為,大方向也是如何助Google+跟FB爭一日之長短,雖則,大家都明白唔多容易。 當然當然,對大家而言,被收購後,是否意味Whatsapp將「永久免費」,還是比較關心的一件事。 Continue reading »
