Google has expanded over the years, helping people specify what they are looking for by giving them results of one specific area of the internet. Google Images allows people to search for pictures, and just pictures, Google Shopping allows people to search a product, and see which online stores sell it, Google Earth allows people to see a 3D view of the earth, and any specific part of it in the world, the list goes on and on... here are some others...

Google is always creating something new, and as they continue to expand their "secret goal" of taking over the internet, if you will, is becoming closer and closer. Though I have not read into Google's future plans, it is quite obvious that they are going to try and become the provider for the rest of the internet. It seems Google plans to almost become the internet. From what I've heard is their goal is to be the first page that shows up when someone opens the internet and from there, you can go where ever you want, other search engines, websites, blogs etc.
I guess we will have to wait and see...
