Reports are rolling in about the upcoming release of "Google Me", a Facebook-like service that may make some waves in the world of Social Networking. Facebook is number one with almost a half a billion members and has been on top since it surpassed MySpace early last year.

Google has tried to take on social networking before with Orkut (which only became popular in a few countries) and more recently, Google Buzz which got some bad publicity over privacy issues.

Google has a lot of power and resources and when they set their mind to something, they are often unstoppable. Some rumors claim that Facebook is preparing for the worst this time as the third try might be the charm for the search giant.

It would be an uphill battle for Google to get even a tenth of the members Facebook has, but five years from now, who knows what we'll be using to update our status and post photos.
