It all started when Google was positioned as the leading Internet search engine, since then Microsoft has been a thorn in your heart and quietly developing and recently launched its own search engine called Bing, who has a good acceptance but fails to to move ahead of Google.

Google launched its Chrome browser to Internet Explorer to counter balance, in the field who has not had as much acceptance and whose war has fish in troubled waters if Firefox has prompted many customers to your version of IE, Mozilla Firefox. A little over a week Google announced, although there has been no further details or characteristics, for the 2010 development of a new operating system called Google OS Chrome to compete with Microsoft Windows.

Even before Google had developed a suite of free applications that included a presentation, a spreadsheet and a word processor, Microsoft is now developing to answer the end of the year by offering its Office 2010 suite for free on the web. Both the version of Google and the need for Microsoft to create a Google account in the case of Google and Windows Live (which used to Hotmail and Messenger).

The version of Google web applications have the basic functions of Save, Print, undo and redo that work very well, but Microsoft has been more ambitious in its promise that it will put the web applications of the rule commands that you use in your Office applications based PC with a larger number of commands and options with the possibility of using its virtual disk Skydrive for storing your documents. This way you can have your documents available from anywhere where you have access to the Internet and without having installed the Office suite to create and edit files from Word, Excel and Powerpoint.

These features are both good and bad in each case, for example Google has a simple interface is easier to use. Microsoft Office in compliance with the 80/20 rule where 80% of people use only 20% of the features of the programs while Google is met in 50/50 for its simplicity.
Hopefully Google now as back then this is a war of the titans which will all livestock.
