The two tech darlings are growing into fierce competitors with every new chapter in their quests for consumer domination. The latest page of this low-key yet high-stakes saga finds Google potentially going after Amazon’s Prime loyalty shopping program. The Wall Street Journal reported earlier this month that Google is in talks with major retailers to launch a service where shoppers would pay a flat annual fee in exchange for subsidized shipping. If this sounds vaguely familiar, it’s because Amazon has been perfecting that model for years.

Amazon Prime allows active online shoppers to pay $79 a year in exchange for free two-day shipping of any Amazon-warehoused merchandise. Hurried buyers can pay $3.99 for overnight deliveries. The leading Web-based retailer has never divulged the exact number of Prime members on its rolls, but it has referred to them in the “millions” earlier this year.

How can Google pull this off without centralized warehouses? Will the search engine titan face conflicts of interest by having a more direct hand in the fortunes of some of its advertisers? Why go after a model that Amazon seems to have all but cornered? Let’s answer the last question first. Amazon Prime shoppers are a loyal lot. When there’s something they need to buy, they go directly to Amazon.com’s homepage.

Why not? If Amazon or one of its merchant partners is selling it through one of its fulfillment warehouses, they’re already paying for unlimited access to free two-day shipping.

See the problem? Amazon Prime shoppers are no longer leaning on Google’s search engine — more specifically, its Google Product Search comparison shopping engine — to scour cyberspace for better deals. This is why you see giant corporations making silent alliances, much like we saw in the stripe merchant services a few years back. Similar attitudes are rising within google, anything that circumvents Google.com as an Internet launching pad is a threat.

Yes, you may be surprised what we are up to here. But we mean business. The optimism or bubble of optimism in Silicon Valley cannot be explained in words. It is real and it is better you experience it. Do you know that Mark Pincus, the Founder of Zynga, is now a billionaire?  Yes, the guy has made it. And many of them are on the way to the money farm  while  the whole world is messed up.

That brings us to one question: if the guys in Silicon Valley are enjoying a world that is only available to them, very soon, they can miss that intuition to understand what the “other” world needs. Facebook Founder only eats cow he kills himself. His bush meat must be killed by Mark Zuckerberg.  In a world where property prices are rising, the unemployment is very very low, how can they understand what we need? Simply, Silicon Valley is in another world.

But remember there is a high competitive war in Silicon Valley. It is the typical Tech War that four companies are fighting. Amazon, Apple, Facebook and Google are fighting these wars and they are all fighting to win. Yahoo which is leaderless right now is not part of this war. Microsoft is somehow connected but in the grand scheme of things, it is not at the nucleus of this war. These are some of the signs of the war – they are throwing bullet of ideas, court suits, etc:

-Apple sues Motorola Mobility

-Google introduces Facebook killer, Google Plus

-Facebook copies the good stuffs in Google Plus

-Spotify finds home in Facebook (hu Apple iTunes)

-Goggle gets into hardware via Motorola Mobility

-Amazon launches a really good Android Apps Store. Soon, Android Market will close and Amazon one will rule

-Google unveils Google Music

-Amazon launches Amazon Cloud Player

• Apple releases Newstand (hey Kindle)

-Amazon unveils Android Fire

We are waiting to see how it will affect us, because as our elders say, when two elephants fight, the grasses suffer.
