Some people have labeled Siri as a "Google Killer" for they think it will dominate the way we search the web and Google will just be an afterthought. This is not necessarily true though. If Google goes ahead and makes a Siri like thing for Android phones there will be no problem. Plus at the moment Siri's default search engine is Google. So for now Siri is not a "Google Killer," but rather a serious possible competitor to Google. This is something Google has not had until recently with specialized search engines like Yelp and Kayak that are easier for their specialization. Yet, Siri has created a new way of searching the web and other things that before now has not worked well. Eventually these technologies could work better than Yelp for food searches or Kayak for travel. Siri is not the first voice activated thing that will search the web. It is just the best one out there yet. Google will become an afterthought though if they don't get on the bandwagon and start making a better voice activated search engine like Siri.
