If I were Google…

1 Nov 2006 (Wed)

LATEST: Google has acquired Jotspot. Gosh! What else would it buy next? Here’s my diagrammatic overview of Google’s complete offerings in the near future — extrapolations in bold, dark blue text, and assuming that all Google services will eventually be accessible from within Google Groups:

"If I were Google..." diagram in Gliffy

Most users will never need to leave Google. What an amazing pool of spontaneously generated data this would be for researchers!

By the way, I created the diagram above using Gliffy, another exciting free tool on the Web. And yes, collaborative editing is possible. There’s versioning too. A word of caution though: Remember to save and exit from Gliffy often. It hung my system just now.

    See also discussion with Shanta, Peter, et al, in Me2U@Athabasca (an Elgg learningspace).

    Was truly glad when Shanta said in a Skype chat on 16th Nov, “Liked your If I were Google post. Puts it in perspective. Thanks!”

    By the way, I now prefer to use Gliffy instead of CmapTools if it continues to be free. Reasons:

    • Gliffy output are like regular graphics.
    • One can create many types of diagrams with Gliffy, but only concept maps with Cmap.
    • Gliffy can be plugged into a wiki. Currently being tested with Confluence.
    • Text in Gliffy can be hyperlinked. Once it starts to incorporate hyperlinked shapes (see [Click to view link]), it could work pretty much like cmaps (except perhaps for the online discussion feature).
    • It tracks changes collaborators make to diagrams in wiki fashion. (Note: collaboration feature still a little unstable currently.)
