Ah, I now think you are generally right. It is good to keep a check on becoming too enamored with Google's plans though. I mention this because I actually do care a lot about Google's role in the next decade, etc. Like anyone who is ambitious, they are arguably sometimes a little too precocious for their own good. And sometimes they make mistakes, but sometimes they get away with things because we want to believe they are always doing the right thing. But that can encourage bad, unsustainable behavior. Speaking about things VERY GENERALLY, but I'd just as soon they avoid that. I'm thinking even as far back as Google's somewhat novel IPO. Or their Google Books situation. There's this idea that gets promulgated during these events that somehow they're doing things completely differently than a normal corporation. That there is nothing particularly 'corporate' in the traditional sense about what they're doing. I don't know. It just has never really sounded completely clear to me. But maybe that's just me.
