Google Reader will not be there anymore on the first of july. What this means for bloggers is obvious. It will be not easy to help people following your blog post in the future.<\/p>\n<p>This shut down is only an economic decision for a moment. The reason why Google is making this decision lays in its social media strategy. I wouldn\u2018t be surprised if Google will soon announce a Reader like implementation on Google Plus.<\/p>\n<p>Social Media aggregators are demanding our content in first place for obvious reasons. Why sharing add profit with a blogger when you can display adds nearby the same content in your own social media system like Google Plus?<\/p>\n<p>The times are over, that Google only wants to have our personal information for \u201enot being evil\u201c delivering you information and adds you really like. A big +1 for that.<\/p>\n<p>It is about the content that Google is after like every other social media strategist. You can recognize this strategy also in the new function of Goole image search. High resolution image theft never has been more obvious and bold.<\/p>\n<p>The future of content has been and should be the freedom of the internet.<\/p>\n<p>Freedom in Social Media? German moderator Domian ranted about the catholic church last week. Facebook deleted his post. Welcome in the world of tomorrow.<\/p>\n<p>This censorship is not a big problem if the content stands on his blog in first place and could be found by the people.<\/p>\n<p>The Google Terms of services are allowing Google to use and sell your content in the Google world. Selling your photos in a Google stock photo agency that only displays your photos in Google system adds could be a good way of income. Especially when there is no more place to post content in the world outside of Google Plus (&#8230;or Facebook or the closed Apple system. Although I am writing about Google Facebook is more evil because it\u00a0 is obviously harming our personal borders).<\/p>\n<p>Your content will not be your content anymore very soon. Sharing will be the first commandment if you don\u2018t want to disappear. If there is no open internet anymore sharing automatically means sharing with the internet content extractor of your choice. So make your choice wisely where you will post your content first.<\/p>\n<p><strong>After releasing your word, your image, your video you will not own it!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I don\u2018t have the right answer but I believe in blogging as a free and open system. So I will keep on blogging in my own little space.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Google will shut down its greatest function of the whole Google system.
