Google is now an ICANN-accredited registrar of domain names.

According to a hint by Garett Rogers who experimented some GMail codes, there is a possibility that Google is introducing, a powerful way for anybody who owns a domain to utilize GMail as a mail server, not just a client. This I think is a possible battle, against the fruitlessly msn introduced Windows Live Custom Domains under its Windows live ideas project.

There is also a rumour that Google is thinking of venturing into domain and web hosting, which points to the direction of another possible competition with Yahoo yet again, after its victory over Web Search engines.

The question is, how far would Google go, to secure the king of the internet title?

What would be Google’s next step?

Payment processors play an important role in the world of E-commerce. It is either you are using it to pay for a product or service or to get paid for offering a product or service. Whichever position you find yourself, you are left to do the worrying, on whether the payment processor you are using is worth using or not. Security, Reliability, and Support are primary concerns in decision making.

The method normally been chosen by the online public, depends also on certain factors, which is normally brought about by the restrictions set by the processor or payment gateway. This restriction is generally determined by the laid down regulations sometimes call terms, that governs the existence of the processor.

I have been opportune to use a lot of payment processors either at the receiving end or from the sending end, be it for pleasure or for business. So, I would say I have the prerequisite to give feedbacks to the services been offered by the processors I have had the opportunity to use.

The payment processors I have been opportune to use are Paypal, Emocorp, Stormpay, 2checkout, E-gold and Moneybookers.
