Google flaunts Meltdown-proofiness

Monopoly.

How can you summerise what this company does any further than that. They are criminals. I can't believe that Google are reading everyone's emails in GMail, storing credit card numbers in their databases in Google Checkout and fetching the remainder of everyone's Adwords budgets at their leisure, amoungst other things, and all everyone does is whinge about Microsoft. These guys have gone too far. Waaaaaaaay too far.

COVER UP!!!!

C'mon, we all knew they were hiding this. Jobs is on his deadthbed and all he can think about is his share price. Those shares won't be worth anything to him if he's dead. Time to drop the ego and just bail, if you're not good enough to go then don't do it anymore, and a rocky road for shareholders and replacement staff is someone else's problem.

What a tool.

I stand corrected

Chris Richards - I actually don't think Seinfled is funny either. Do you think it's a conincidence that Microsoft just recently got a $6 billion loan? They must be going after Oprah as their next spokeswhore haha

Spot on

Finally... a reporter who doesn't have a virtual orgasm over everything that Google does. It is pretty amusing to watch a search and ad company trying to be a software company. They may as well save their development dollars and do an all out purchase of Adobe or Apple or something if they wanted to be a software company. In the meantime, they are just being a laughing stock.

The best things they've 'developed' are the things that they bought. Maps, World, Streetview, Youtube, good purchases. Chrome, Orkut (??) and OpenSocial all seem like the workings of the short fat ugly kid wanting to be picked to play on the soccer team. Get a clue kid, you're short fat and ugly and we don't like you. Give us your lunch money though...

Everyone has their vices - Microsoft hires a funnyman to try and look funny and Google make software to try and look like a software company. Stick to what you know best I say. :)
