Google vs. Alibaba

Wow! I hadn't even heard of the Alibaba operating system for handsets.

I wonder when this will start affecting the West. How close are we to seeing a Chinese Android variant the way we have an Amazon one?

What happens when, suddenly, all these Chinese internet playas start going international?

Everyone is focussed on Google and Facebook and Twitter etc. But Asia is full of equivalents. At some point, one of them will achieve some mainstream success in the West. And then what?
