I decided to use the Google Translate to post some of my blogs in English. I don’t expect them to be perfect but hopefully good enough to understand what I’m talking about. I want to edit the posts ASAP. Thanks to Google!

It is not excluded that the words of Caesar in the headline of this still one of my brief news notes , really soon turn to Mark Zuckerberg to Steve Balmer (or anyone else out there from Microsoft?)

On manners prevailing among the IT giants and claiming a leadership role in the social space of the Internet, about the complicated relationships in the triangle «Facebook, Google, Microsoft» I have already described . «No permanent friends, only permanent interests» in the market! And now another news. Earlier this week, InformationWeek magazine has told us about some felts accidental release of information about the conscious or omitted it reset. Supposedly Microsoft, despite its friendly relations with Facebook, still followed by Google, too, decided to challenge the new evil empire, and to enter the market of social switcheboardes.

A year ago, in one analytical publication about who nevertheless threw down the gauntlet Facebook and create its equivalent, but for «mature», have been named three potential candidates: Microsoft, Google and Apple. In the company’s priority, so there have been listed. So, in terms of market logic, the news that they could have expected.

It seems that the pattern repeats itself last summer, when major events unfolded, eventually ascended to Facebook podium and made ​​him the founder of the Man-2010 . All last year’s event began with a moment in Facebook appeared to Like . Then all of a sudden started talking about Google Me — a mysterious new project , a statement which was removed quickly. And almost exactly a year instead of Google Me was launched into orbit Google +.

And now summer seems to be «hot.» First, quite successfully begun testing a semi Google +, which once was well received by the public and press. And now, supposedly and Microsoft — the eternal enemy of the main web-detective is going.

The news went for a walk on the Internet, when the home page of the company’s site Socl.com, previously acquired by Microsoft, in last Friday’s sudden announcement came the service, called Tulalip: «C Tulalip, you can find and share information much easier than anywhere else» . But by Saturday it was replaced by the following announcement: «Thank you for visiting the site Socl — interior design of the research team Microsoft». How can you not think again about the first message on a remote Google Me?!

Who knows, but suddenly the truth, nothing «wrong» did not happen — just one more «internal» investigation of the guys from the lab Microsoft Research. Much we have different their «social» experiments had seen, but in practice in this area, none anywhere far has not gone. All the more so on the same ill-fated home page were «icons» Facebook and Twitter-current partner Microsoft.

But on the other hand, what if, and in fact soon we will have another social switchboard? This time from Microsoft. Though not so spectacular co name as Tulalip, rather than, say, some Bing +. Of course, everything can be, but personally I doubt very much — «Bolevar (user) can not survive …» all three!
