Interesting thought: What if the reason that Google is unable to find a second source of revenue outside of advertising, is the size and importance of the ad revenue itself and the effect it has on the organization?

- InclinedPlane 11y agoYes, that's precisely my point. There's no incentive (no hunger) to build up a product into something mature and heavily profitable because of the ad revenue trough. And there's no consequences for failure or missteps for the same reason. This leads to a fundamental lack of seriousness in developing products and customer relationships, which stunts google's development compared to what it could be.
