GoogleCL, what it's for ?

Google have introduced a Linux command line package of tools to access it's web services.

Go to: http://code.google.com/p/googlecl/

Maybe Google thought that Linux users are 'geeks' and therefore 'geeks' like terminals and command lines ? I have no idea what Google was thinking when they released GoogleCL.

My personal opinion is they are doing something useless. It's far more efficient to use a browser or Google Apps with all the GUI to access the Google Web Services then a long string of command line command.

Imagine you want to post a blog using GoogleCL which would be the bottom command:

google blogger post --title "GoogleCL, what it's for ?" "Google have introduced a Linux command line package of tools to access it's web services.

Wow, that would be a hell of a long command string to just make a blogging post to blogger !

This is yet another product where Google is making, not knowing what to do... and having bad imaginations and ideas besides wasting precious software development time and developers on unnecessary things and bad product ideas.

They could have redirected these quality time and developer resources to more useful development like the WebM project, Chrome browser...etc.

I think this is one of the bad decisions and uncreative things Google have created.
