Googleoffered TechCrunch this not - so - unveil explanation . The use of interrogation soft touch is precious :
Google Barge … A float data center ? A wild company boat ? A barge caparison the last remaining dinosaur ? Sadly , none of the above . Although it ’s still other 24-hour interval and things may change , we ’re exploring using the flatboat as an synergistic quad where multitude can learn about new engineering .
Okay , that could think anything . Technically , the Brookstone at your local shopping mall is also “ an interactive space where people can pick up about new applied science . ” So is a science museum . Ditto for Home Depot . Did you take chemistry in high school ? Chances are , class was held in “ an interactive space where hoi polloi can learn about new engineering . ”
So , while it ’s just that Google has claimed ownership over a task thateverybody already knew they owned , we ’re still left in the shadow about what they ’re in reality planning to do with it . This argument is the equivalent of someone plugging in a nightlight across the room . It gives you something to stare at , but you ’re still clueless about what else is in the elbow room .
