Google's Big plan

So Google, what are they really doing?

They know everything about you, your friends, your interests, your problems, secret desires etc etc. So what could all this knowledge be good for? Specialist targeted advertising, maybe but I think there's something else.

We are a species. A species strives for ubiquity. Deep down the most important mission we have is to continue and evolve the species, not always on an individual level perhaps, but on a group level, for sure.

So how do we continue the species. Mating, pretty much nails it. And we mate by finding people we like and getting drunk with them, pretty much. So how on earth do we find the right people? Well... Google knows everybody right?

So naturally Google are going to start a dating service and it's gonna be the best damn dating service in the history of hooking up. Finding the best possible mate has got to be worth more to our species than knowing whether to push Flash bathroom cleaner ads at me on a blog I'm reading. Please tell me it is.

I may not be entirely serious.
