Google Base

Filed under: — adam @ 10:41 am

Google has a new product in the works – Google Base. It’s essentially a free-form database with flexible and user-defined schemas that lets you “publish” items. Where they’re published is not yet apparent, although they’re clearly targeted directly at various Google services in addition to whereever they “live”.

Google, obviously, is tired of crawling the web for all your shit, and wants you to just give it to them directly in a way they can easily index.
