It's a genuinely interesting question (at least to me) what the "next Google" is going to look like. Is there space to build a search engine that surpasses Google (given how fast and powerful Google already is) ?
Not sure if I am just imagining things , but it seems like Google has slowed down a little in recent years. When I type terms in the search bar nowadays (using a Mac laptop) and click the search button, it seems like there is a short (but barely perceptible) pause before the result is displayed. And Gmail seems to have slowed down quite abit too --- is it because Gmail is slow or I have a huge inbox? I seem to recall a time when Google was first launched, everything you did on it was virtually instantaneous. (Or am i just speculating and imagining things after reading this essay?)
Maybe the "next Google" won't be a search engine at all, but some kind of quantum computer skynet system that basically connects everyone on the planet instantaneously through thought processes or a futuristic 3d holographic hardware laptop that displays your screen and keyboard as floating 3d holograms that appear in front of your face , which you can manipulate with your fingers ..
