Google Online Accounting, I don't think so

Speculation has begun on what the next Killer Google App will be, and if the folks over at Read/Write Web are right it will be an Online Accounting System. Their basis for predicting this is out lined in their post, Online Accounting: The Next Killer App For Google Apps.

I for one believe given Google's model of introducing Web Apps for long Beta's prior to ever putting their production blessing to them. I doubt that even if they were to introduce a Accounting program that they would be greeted the the type of response they are accustomed to.

We are talking MONEY here and no company I know of would want to risk their companies books on BETA software. After all what happens after 6 months and they find a major logic flaw in the software. Google says it only BETA software and the companies affected shouldn't have been using it in production. Google is off the hook, after all it is BETA software, and your company is stuck explaining why they trusted a Beta Accounting System.

It's not going to happen, at least not the traditional way Google does things.
