If there were ever a company that had a real chance of becoming Skynet, it would be Google. Let’s hope that ‘don’t be evil’ mantra still permeates the company in twenty five years when Google AI robots are cooking your dinner or tending to other things. Today Google announced it’s own alternative DNS resolver. Google’s not the only company to do this by any means, there’s even sites dedicated to it like OpenDNs. However, it’s a little scary just how much of the world’s information ecosystem one company controls.

Want to call someone use your Google Phone (Motorola Droid) and Google Voice to ring them up! Want to find their website? Pop open your laptop, outfitted with Chrome OS and Chrome Browser and search to your hearts content. Want your news? Google Reader is there aggregating feeds from FeedBurner. Click through to the website and Google is there with AdSense. Sick of cable? No worries, Google’s YouTube will soon be a fair substitute. Use your Droid to get directions to a job interview, Google the company and find out what their pagerank is.

There’s even a Google internet bus!!!
