Google, the World's Hard Drive

Here's some pretty good quick analysis from The Business (London) about Google's GDrive project, which was accidentally revealed last week in presentation notes published on the web with a Powerpoint presentation: "Google to be the world's hard drive."

The Business says Google's plan to provide universally-available remote storage for users' data harmonizes with Scott McNealy's "thin-client" vision and conflicts with Microsoft's PC-centric model of computing.
