• First, thanks for the link to the ads. They are cute and have a nice (a different from the rest) feeling. But not a Picasso's think! (See Mac OS's icon to see a Picasso's look.)
  
  I can see the next campaigns:
  
  1) "Browse differently" (They didn't call this series... but it's the same idea, without celebrities).
  2) "I'm a Chrome, I'm an Explorer"... actors left to your imagination. In reply to: "Google makes its home page a Chrome page"

• Maybe we will see the ?TV Take 3, also known as ?TV-on-steroids.
  It will include TV-subscriptions and the habilty to run iPhone/iPod touch's games and applications.
  You'll be able to play a multiuser game with one display and several iPhone/iPod touchs.
  
  Then, when the presentation is almost finished, Steve will say "One More Thing"... and show up the tablet. In reply to: "Apple stockholders get record high for Christmas"

• A question... or two:
  
  "According to TechCrunch, development of add-ons for Google Chrome is much easier than it is for Firefox, and those add-ons apparently no longer constrain Chrome's performance in the same way that Firefox add-ons do for Firefox."
  
  Each page in Chrome is a "separated browser" for safety. Will it load the same extension in each page? (so heavier use of memory) Or, will one extension load (at browser root, if there exist something like that) and "compromise" tab-isolated security?
  
  Thanks to anybody who is able to respond to these questions. In reply to: "Could the Google train hurt Firefox?"

• Although I do not like subscriptions, maybe Apple will "design" a subscription service that works and people like and pay. In reply to: "Lala chief could steer iTunes away from downloads"

• The most important part of this project --at least for IBM-- is that nobody is looking at the cost!
  
  But, don't bother, it's a DARPA project... like the internet was a time ago... In reply to: "IBM: Envisioning the world's fastest supercomputer"

  Have they generated the kind of download numbers that iTunes has?
  The money?
