Chris Espinoza has a great post on the strategic implications of Amazon’s new cloud proxy based browser, Silk, on Google’s traffic.
[Amazon] use a back-revved version of Android, not Honeycomb; they don’t use Google’s web browser; they can intermediate user click through on Google search results so Google doesn’t see the actual user behavior. Google’s whole play of promoting Android in order to aggregate user behavior patterns to sell to advertisers is completely subverted by Amazon’s intermediation.
