Falling into Their Web?

Chef Quix has some interesting speculations as to how Google is likely to go about distributing their GMail service, and what valuable information they plan to collect along the way.

If he's right, those Google folks are a bunch of sneaky rascals.

Well that's the price of capitalism, no? You've always gotta undermine the competitor.

In response to Gmail, Yahoo has just increased my server space ten fold.

I think we are beginning to benefit from a email war.

As an optimistic speculist, I put the first two comments together and came to the conclusion that if undermining the competitor results in the competitor adding benefits for the consumer, and if benefitting the consumer leads to greater profits for the competitor, the end result is not undermining after all.

I think I flunked logic 101.

Benefiting the consumer does not lead to greater profits...
