Surprised that Amazon Wants The Hotel Industry?

It's been reported that Amazon wants to set up a website to manage hotels. Am I surprised? I had a theory that Google was going to manage Nightclubs in the future. I shouldn't be surprised if Amazon wants hotels, as they've set up an Amazon store in New York, so why wouldn't they?

I wouldn't be surprised if those big companies are hitting those bigger building industries. I suppose they're just having fun.

Youtube's Advert: TheSlowMoGuys


I'm sure I don't need to say much about this, who would of thought Google would pay other websites to display their ads, considering Google gets most of it's revenue from displaying other adverts, they decide to take it upon themselves to release ads on other websites. 

It's advert itself it actually very well done, the advert asks you to hover your mouse and your mouse cursor changes to the side arrows which usually appear when you move your mouse over the windows size, to resize the window, however in this case, dragging your mouse from size to size actually plays animation, as you can see, from TheSlowMoGuys footage. It's a one of a kind advert, hence why I'm also keeping it.

It's a keeper.


PS: I'm not sucking up to Google. I hope this blog post doesn't come this way.
