Comment on Has Google been humbled?

What is Google doing at the moment? Chrome and Android are under development, but I can't really see anything else on the horizon. Search results now have a somewhat annoying hover preview, but I am wondering what else is going on over there.

Besides active development on their dozens of profitable projects, the only big-name product on the horizon right now is Chrome OS and their social solution the press have nicknamed Google Me.

This isn't unusual around the turn of the year though. They typically announce their upcoming products during all the springtime conferences, especially I/O.

GoogleTV was just released. If it succeeds at doing for television what Android did for phone, it's kind of a big deal.

I got Logitech Revue (GoogleTV) a week ago through the Google developer program and I've been playing with it, trying to imagine how this is all going to fit together. It's a bit bleeding-edge now but it could easily take off if they can just push out enough updates and introduce the App Store to it.

Yeah, but Chrome (browser + eventual OS) and Android consist of "the base for all non-server computing".
