The Best Acquisition That Google Can Pursue…..”Pinterest”

Pinterest is a company without a definite plan of action for generating capital at any level that would measure up to its real potential. Yet, the company has built a platform that can be utilized to charge a minimum of 1% of all sales transactions that occur via pinterest.

If Google is in search for an acquisition that can bring about an additional business model that generates billions of dollars of revenue annually, while simultaneously gaining ground on Facebook in pursuit of social network dominance, pinterest should be an essential part of Google’s growth strategy, because pinterest has a real value that is currently unseen that makes any acquisition price at current market value a steal.

It is my belief that Google should use a small portion of the billions of dollars of cash that it has amassed to acquire pinterest. On the contrary, Facebook could make pinterest its next acquisition target – especially since pinterest is a more valuable asset than instagram.

Google Glasses, Part One, Facial Cues……Detecting Truths and/or Falsehoods

The future uses of Google glasses will enhance a user’s life experiences in many ways, such life enhancements will vary from the menial to the highest levels of social interactions and experiences.

A lot of such future social enhancements are relatively simple to foresee – especially when factoring in the usability/functionality of apps, technological advancements, et cetera. Therefore, it’s easy to visualize some of the positive impacts that such a device will create for the wearer of such a gadget.

There are a lot of ways in which I can vision using “smart glasses,” but one of the most entertaining ways to use such would be in measuring the truthfulness and / or deceitfulness of individual’s statements in the course of conversations.

Since there are relevant correlations between individual’s facial expressions/body language and the truthfulness and / or deceitfulness of their statements such physical cues can and will be analyzed and interpreted in the future through the use of smart glasses and imbedded software (apps, et cetera).

Now grant it, as with any type of device created to predict an individual’s level of honesty, such as the polygraph, there will never be a 100% level of accuracy rating, however since facial cues are pretty much natural responses that are ingrained in the physical fabric of humanity, it not difficult to create analytical software that would interpret facial cues within a range of eighty to ninety something percentage of accuracy.

An individual wearing smart glasses would be able to record entire conversations with other individuals, and save such data for examination at a later time yet, they could also receive live analytical feedback in the course of conversations.

Live analytical feedback would work perfectly in a lot of situations, such as in the process of job interviews, interrogations, and so forth. Such feedback would provide the questioner with real-time information that would either support and/or counter the answers given by the responder.

I could go on and on about the many situations that such facial analytical software would be useful in. such as in disputes among couples altercations within families mainly between parent and child), et cetera. Yet, I’ll leave it up to the reader’s (your) imagination to fill in the blanks.
