Google Inc. is planning to harness the growing market for educational software and emerge as a single point of access to a majority of popular education applications available today, by integrating all in an exclusive online marketplace, according to recent reports from Bloomberg Businessweek.Google has taken its voice recognition service and personalized it for users.
While most of the revenue for Google so far has come from search advertising, it now eyes a share of sale proceeds from software developers for whom it will facilitate sales through the online store. A few applications from product companies such as Aviary and Grockit are already available in the Google Apps Marketplace, the current online store of the Internet major. However, any sales generated through the store accrues entirely to the developer at present. Under the Company’s new plans there is likely to be a change in this model.
