Sergey is an interesting character. He's so brutally honest and unrefined. There's no trace of corporate bullshit, no fear of saying anything wrong about Google (although he did correct himself over eBay).
He's awkward. Says "er" a lot. Makes jokes about competitors. Admits that Glass hasn't succeeded yet. Criticises mobile phones (I assume it's a Nexus 4). Says his wife slaps him.
No CEO would do any of this. It's refreshing to see a company spokesperson so "normal".
- psbp 14y agoHe kind of comes across as a less shifty Mark Zuckerberg.
- spdy 14y agoThats why i like him more and trust him to make the right calls. (i.e. privacy) Mark does not have that, whenever i hear him you can sense this aura surrounding him. Something is off. And comparing both companies Google is driving inovation. Google Car will transform our planet within years and the same goes for Glass. Think about where in your workplace you could apply a tool like this.
- nakedrobot2 14y agoIt is worth noting that every major car company is working on self-driving cars, and has been for quite a few years now.
- vidarh 14y ago> and has been for quite a few years now They have. I first saw stuff about self driving cars when I was a kid, a couple of decades ago. So where are they? Google has had a fraction of the time, yet appears to have gotten further than most already..

- dombili 14y agoIt's definitely refreshing to see. I don't like the Glass project but kudos to him for being straightforward about it regarding its obvious problems. He's too nervous when he's making a joke though. Those moments are borderline cringeworthy.
