how long will google last?
 

A few years ago yahoo was the king, then came google. while you may think google will last, surly somone will come out with somthing that will crush google. or mabe google is king for ever.

the new search engine wikipedia is working on could be interesting. but i think with google's overall worth and hold in different areas of the internet, they will pretty much swallow up or replicate any good ideas that come along in the future.

google is going nowhere. most people i know don't even say "go search that"... it's "go google it" google has become synonymous with searching, it's not ever going away. i don't ever remember yahoo being that popular.

isnt google still making something to blow wiki away?

google is working on an opensource encyclopedia now? or are you referring to a response to wiki's search engine?

Google will morph over time yet remain a internet giant.

Google was founded and owned by members of a certain superior ethnic minority. They are not going anywhere. You all work for Google in some way or another.

I believe Google loves wiki... :D

Nothing lasts forever, the only questions is if new giant will emerge in 5, 10 or 20 years....

They aren't even THAT great anyway, I have no idea why people think they are some gods of the business world...

Few years ago? More like a decade ago, 1998.
