That’s about how fast Kim Sacha is — she’s one of the top 10 players in the world. Watch the video and learn how to play Zuma (one of the top Xbox 360 and iPod video games). Oh, and if you’re in the video game business, this is free customer research into the casual gamer market. Hint: those women control a lot of Xbox purchases! Wake up Tom Peters! She has a WordPress blog all about Zuma 360 too.

Oh, and if you want something a bit more geeky, watch Liz Lawley, the social software professor. She has forgotten more about social software than we know. Seriously, if you’re into Web 2.0 and World of Warcraft and all that, she’s done some of the best thinking. Yes, she has a blog too (doesn’t update it enough, we think she’s off in WoW or over in Vox too much), and is an instructor at Rochester Institute of Technology and just finished a stint at Microsoft Research.

When will Google crash come?

Dave Winer says we’ll know Web 2.0’s bubble is popped when Google’s stock crashes.

So, what’s the chances of that happening? Well, here in Wales, I see hundreds of businesses, nearly none of them are on Google. Despite the fact that the local population says they use Google.

Translation: Google’s growth isn’t close to being done yet. Particularly internationally.

Will Barons prove right? I don’t know. I still remember all the pundits saying “Apple is dead.” Or, talk to Robert Hess. When he started working at Microsoft about 18 years ago his coworkers told him to sell Microsoft, thinking there was no possible way for the stock to go up more than it already had (remember, back in the 1980s Microsoft was in the same place that Google is today).

I see nothing that’ll stop Google. Do you?

Or, if you do think Google is overrated, what do you think will pop its bubble?

Some things we’ll watch for: growth slowing. That’ll tell us that Google doesn’t have what it takes to get all these businesses on board.
