Despite sustain hooves rather of feet , the Macalope was looking for another shoe last month : the shoe that is the dislocation of Google ’s peregrine search numbers . Thanks to Uncle Sam holding hearings on Google ’s search monopoly , that brake shoe has now dropped — and we know that it smell mostly like Apple ’s foot .
Noting that Google hada great quarterly earnings report , the horny one added :
The companionship did have a great quartern , but when it talks about how great “ nomadic search ” is for it , note it ’s not say “ Android search . ”
How much of Google ’s mobile lookup is done on iOS ? turn out abouttwo - thirds .
But as part of the testimonial , [ Google counsel ] Creighton say briefly ( before she was prune off ) that 2/3rds of peregrine search comes from Apple Io devices . That ’s fairly interesting count the plowshare of Android devices in the market . But not completely surprising considering the web browser app market share which includes those millions and zillion of iPads .
Google eff better than the Macalope whether all the effort it set into Android is worthwhile , but the horny one stay fresh wondering how much the company really gets out of it .
There ’s even some question if Google ’s go to cover to getanythingout of it . Apple follower run to focus on the causa that involve Apple ( although we have found Microsoft ’s power to tithe Android OEMs to be confusingly schadenfreudelicious ) , butOracle ’s suit against Google drives more to the effect of Android .
The bottom blood is that a Java permit can become more costly , possibly even far more costly , to Google than the proposed acquisition of Motorola Mobility if Oracle obtains an enjoining that Google ca n’t engineer around .
Really , the Macalope has no desire to see Android get squashed like a glitch . He like challenger . Hey , Android got notifications right before iOS did . Even if you ’re never go to apply Android in a million year , there ’s note value in experience it around .
But what the Macalope does object to is silly pundits who trust it ’s all peaches and cream for Android while iOS dines on nothing but distastefully alliterative sandwiches . Apple makes more money off its mobile platform than anyone else makes off their own . That , in a capitalistic economy , is winning . Period . End of sentence . Full hitch .
Despite that , right now , at thisveryminute , somewhere some dimwit ’s write a piece on how Android is beating iOS .
Nothing you may do about it . dummy springs unending .
