Friendfeed came from former Google employees.

  Key word being 'former'. Seems the brilliant work comes either from people who aren't yet an employee, or already were and left. Is Google just a giant Y Combinator?

    No, what you are seeing is that individually creditable work occurs in the pre- and post-corporate employment stage. Which is practically a tautology. There are plenty of epic technical achievements within Google. In fact, it's practically expected. The rest of the world just hears about these innovations, on average, three years after they happen. If they ever hear about them.
