Incubation platform, is an piece written in John Battelles Blog, here he is referring to the distributed platform created in google and how google can leverage this by throwing it open to application developers.

This is basically getting google to be an application server cum platform for business innovation,
what they can offer

entire web in RAM
mirror your data across the web to any location in real time
plug in services like search,email, social networking, and commerce clearing
shitload of bandwidth and storage, cheap

Well possible but is it probable????? But I think this line of thought just get stronger everyday.

Google as announced that its devoting 25% of revenues to capital spending, Where is all this expenditure going.
