How Facebook eclipsed Google in 2010
- wglb 16y agoI am finding the CNN articles less interesting than what I like to see here on HN. This particular title reminds me of a somewhat sarcastic basketball coach's retort to a reporter who asked "How did you win, coach?" he replied "by scoring more points". From the article Facebook is only "beating" Google if we limit the playing field to the Web. and from earlier in the article Let's begin by admitting that the Hitwise data doesn't represent the whole truth. So it isn't even clear that they scored more points.
- solipsist 16y agoExcellent analogy and I wholeheartedly agree that CNN's articles (especially the technology ones) are going downhill. However, I thought the topic itself was interesting (Google vs. Facebook) and that's why I submitted it.
