Google Gdrive

According to source, Google is testing a new software application called Platypus. Its a unlimited storage space called Gdrive for user to store almost anything they want, I’m not so sure about mp3 and videos but this new feature sound promising, but then again it might be a hoax.

Both the URL for http://www.platypus.com and http://www.gdrive.com don’t seems to be under Google’s list of registered domain names and consider the fact that they’ve leak out the code name, the owner for these domain names are millionaires now. Google doesn’t just want to be the internet, they want the PC to be on the internet! This is the repeat of 1980 when Microsoft battle Apple for the desktop market and now Google vs Microsoft for the internet market. Who is gonna be the winner?

*Answer.com explains that a platypus is a “semiaquatic egg-laying mammal (Ornithorhynchus anatinus) of Australia and Tasmania, having a broad flat tail, webbed feet, and a snout resembling a duck’s bill.”
