The US' National Federation for Advanced Information Services (NFAIS) will hold a 90 minute webinar to provide an update on the Google landscape on September 26, 2012. John Blossom, President of Shore Communications, Inc, will offer insights on the new approaches and directions he is observing in Google products and services, on the strengths of their platform, and on what he sees changing as Google continues to evolve.
With more than 12 billion searches processed per month, Google is expected to continue to dominate the search arena. But today Google is more than search. It offers mobile devices as well as tools for social networking, collaboration, communication and document creation. It has been observed that, with a focus on the convergence of content, technology and people, Google continues to leverage industry trends in order to maintain market dominance and end-user loyalty. The webinar will seek to find out what is new on the company’s horizon.
Some of the topics that will be covered are: Google's Operating System, Chrome, and how it is shaping our view of computing, the web, and our relationship to emerging forms of the Semantic Web; and The impact of mobility and choice of devices (Desktop (Chromebox), laptop (Chromebook), and tablet (Nexus 7). Other topics to be discussed include Google's On-Going Platform Integration (Google Plus, Knowledge Graph, Scholar, Play, YouTube, Gmail and Drive); and Anticipated new (Google Fiber) and soon to-be-discontinued (iGoogle) services.
Interested parties, who want to take a fresh look at Google, its current and future directions, and learn how their organisation can better meet industry trends, may register for the NFAIS webinar.
