What is ZiiTrend?

Google, the Internet company with a seemingly limitless source of revenue, plans to get into the business of finding limitless sources of energy. Google so far seems to have no problem creating news every week. This time, it might go a bit too far by promising it will find renewable energy in "years no decades". This is a very bold promise. Let's predict if Google just talk big, or it will actually invest in some renewable energy company in 2007?

    If Google is going to invest in 2007, I suppose it will tell us they have actually DONE it. The way they put it, it sounds like it will happen later, but they want the PR effect to kick in right now.

      Clean energy does get a lot of investors' attention these days. So, google probably will have no trouble raising capital for clean energy investment if they really do it. Maybe Google will become the next GE, who knows?

    Google wants to become GE? Maybe a younger, more fashionable, more energetic GE? If what Google promise is true, then Google really start to diversify its businesses.
