Google Checkout is officially unveiled today; the latest service to join the Google arsenal in their race to control the entire www. It has been suggested in the news that the Google payment service was also a big factor in the recent Yahoo and eBay partnership, since eBay's Paypal service might finally have some real competition.

Good luck to Google, but I can't help think that people who are security conscious will prefer to manage their own accounts rather than involve an agent.  What a target to hackers Google has just made itself.
