agree. i don't quite see what enduring, long-term competitive edge Google could actually have in China. is it the huge quantity of computing resources behind their search engine? (wouldn't Baidu or other Chinese companies be able to easily outbuild Google?) is it the incredible, mysterious superiority of the super-duper secret Page Rank algorithm? ( jk ) is it the sophisticated and complex home page design and superior google doodles? i mean what is it exactly? google won't be able to reach the monopoly level of market share it enjoys in the US search market so it would actually have to compete on a month to month basis for its very life. this means it will hire a lot of very hard workers in China. and that means google's secret sauce (if it even exists) will make its way out and into the competitive landscape before Google can get close to being a monopoly. it just seems like a losing game.
