“In the last few years, Google has introduced services that, in many cases, simply provide answers to users’ queries. Type in “temperature” and Google will give you a local weather report. Searching for famous people triggers a Google product called “Knowledge Graph,” which displays a photo and some basic information about that person. Queries about local businesses result in a list of Google reviews and maps. The “Google Now” app for Android provides information based on your interests and calendar appointments — without you ever opening the search engine. And some travel searches provide a list of flights and airfares.”

As you can see, the changes are underway and it is safe to say that Google is just getting started.

When asked about the next big innovation, Amit Singhal, head of Google’s search business added the following:

“I would be so bold to predict that in the next two years, you’ll have a conversational search engine that you can talk to like you’re talking to me.”

What are your thoughts on the future of Google Inc (NASDAQ:GOOG)? Is this company going to change the search engine landscape once again?
