In an interview, Jonathan Rochelle, group product manager for Google Apps, said Google acquired DocVerse to make it easier for people to transition from desktop software to online software. The latter is an area where Google is trying to get a leg up over Microsoft, with its Google Apps service, which includes online word-processing and spreadsheet software.
Google is now involved in two strategic battles:
1. against Apple, to dominate mobile software with the Android/Chrome combo;
2. against Microsoft, to dominate server software with Google Apps.
The only question is, Will Google's search cash cow produce enough money to sustain the troops?
