Personally, I couldn't care what proprietary rubbish Google may or may not make next as I use Free Software exclusively. I'd quite like to know which project from Google Labs will become open source first. Most of them, however, seem to rely on Google's massive databases and are, therefore, not likely to become open source. I'd also quite like to see their services use standards-compliant code. They don't event have html tags in most of their pages.
