Today Google officially announced Slide acquisition. That’s not news. But I thought the blog post relatively revealing. Here is a quote (highlights mine).

For Google, the web is about people, and we’re working to develop open, transparent and interesting (and fun!) ways to allow our users to take full advantage of how technology can bring them closer to friends and family and provide useful information just for them.

I always thought Google was focused more on organizing worlds information. With competition from Facebook, looks like Google is adding a new dimension (Google Me?) focusing on social elements.

Google to see Google move in this direction. Competition is good against Facebook, which I have never been a fan of.
