Google Labs

To consider oneself technologically aware it is imperitive to keep abreast of everything Google is doing. They can change the entire environment with one product, much like Google Reader has changed RSS aggregators or iGoogle has changed start pages.

I have used Google applications and APIs for many projects and will do so in the future as long as they continue to "Do no evil."

I agree that Google innovation is driving the technology. But it is hard for such a powerful force to remain true to originating principles with constant feedback from the users. I try to scan Google labs regularly to be aware of where the technology is headed. Of course, we use lots of lab graduates (like Scholar) all the time.
