Apple, Google, and What May Be the Floating Store of the Future
• Wired.comBefore you groan over our nautical metaphors, you should realize they’re more than metaphors: Google is apparently building a massive floating store for Google Glass on San Francisco Bay.
San Francisco CBS affiliate KPIX reported last night that this Google barge would include “luxury showrooms and a party deck for the tech giant to market Google Glass and other gadgets to invitation-only clients.” Though the station cited only anonymous sources, its story is the most definitive since CNET launched a mini-media frenzy by speculating that Google seemed to be building a floating data center in the shadow of the Bay Bridge.
