That's the risk every entrepreneur takes. Next time you need a job you have have a 10 year 'gap' in your resume. Other than founding Google, their supposedly big ideas are just on gambling shareholder's money and make more money via Google

Minus 3 for telling the truth? Shows why Google is in such pathetic shape, Google employees spend all day doing nothing.

Interesting, in light of Google's real name policy. FB 1 - G =0 for now?

Maybe but they'll get promotion within facebook. Lots of users and they can always split if FB goes under.

"With the tablet, Amazon is a follower. That’s never as good." Unless you sell it for half a price is good enough for most people.

Why so many (negative about) FB stories in front? I guess since Google can't Pandafi Facebook, copy their model and drive them out of business or manually give them a penalty they do this. Even monopolies have their limits apparently. Googl

I want to join just so I can have Scoble on my circles!! Add him, take a screenshot, print it and then show it to kids on the neighborhood. Now that's a status symbol ;)

I almost joined, by accident. If you are signed in Gmail or adsense and go there all it takes a button to click. Posting on it and is a different story, I'm sure.

"All of life has been utterly, profoundly changed thanks to Facebook..." Ummmm...not mine. I use it sometimes but total posts under a dozen. Google knows way more than FB about me but that's changing little by little.

He probably sold to (supposedly) sophisticated investors that thought they'd scam retail investors later on.

I smelled a rat, especially when they started to open offices in places like Bulgaria just for the hype.

For those that didn't notice, this is from Larry and Sergey's original PageRank paper http://infolab.stanford.edu/~backrub/google.html , before Eric Schmidt showed up as the "adult." Google is now the largest advertiser on earth. I agree

That's besides the point, even if the writer is 112% correct. What you do with the power you have now, no matter how you got it matters. But advertising based search engines are biased, they will want you to click on ads and will favor thei

They want to index it, but in using that info, it typically sends the user to other sites. Once upon a time maybe. Now they send people to ads mostly, and Google content.

Larry Page has vision and conviction. Exactly what Google has lacked in many ways for a long time. To steal people's property (Books), sell illegal drug ads, make ads barely distinguishable from content, push content way down with not rel

That's not really something that helps Google. They want everyone there, not just self-proclaimed 'early adopters.'

Funny, someone took a point. Must be a new Googler still going through their employee manual:) From Eric Schmidt: " And the notion of strong identity was never invented in the Internet. Many people worked on it - I worked on it as a scient

Very few care anyway and those that know will forget. There's no such as independent back there to begin with. Even here NBC will probably back down on a story after a call from GE that may have a pending deal with X corp.

G+ just doesn't have it. They sure do. For an identity service that is. This is not social, it's a honeypot to get your information, or the information Google still doesn't have.

Search usefulness will be inversely correlated with Google's earnings, just ask Sergey and Larry, read their original paper. I hear through the grapevine that Instant search leads people towards searches with ADS, or more expensive ads. Let

Thanks! Just read read Engadget and it's amazing how many people agreed with that. Shows desktops are not going anywhere for a long time. Maybe MS will add a 'module' so it's a full desktop when needed? If you want to do any meaningful work

Dead in the tech kinda of a way: no expected major hits, no 20% growth a year, just milking what they have now.

Maybe, but life is cheaper in Mexico and the police have bigger fish to fry, making the bombers more dangerous and less likely to got caught.

I have yet to read a negative review of this but then it's coming sometime next year. Anyway, competition is good and MS is usually good at fighting in the trenches for years, so you can never rule them out. . MS also makes or will make mon

Is brand-loving Google biased towards its advertisers?

is this Larry or Sergey? And when are you mass-penalizing travel sites not to compete with yours?
