To me, Google has the same type of arrogance that MSFT and Enron had, which ultimately gets the company into trouble. It's traceable to the types of people that they hire(all high-performing Ivy-League types), which leads to a sort of group-think that makes them truly think that they are the smartest guys in the room who can do no wrong; essentially they are tone deaf and blind to the consequences of their actions. I wish the NEXT Google would hurry up and come along and put some humility into Google - ultimately it won't be MSFT that does this, but some other disruptive innovator.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18286427583342497296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6479491108286515994.post-84746841632932836912010-02-27T12:49:23.342-05:002010-02-27T12:49:23.342-05:00This is Microsoft getting what they deserve for 20...This is Microsoft getting what they deserve for 20 years of stifling innovation.

This has a manual element that Google can essentially decide who gets to be in or out or to what level. This in itself is anti-competitive for the big organisations trying to use the web (Google) to promote themselves and for smaller companies like my own can completely put them out of business. This I believe deserves investigating and I for one would like to get some understanding as to how Google decides and only something as large as the EU anti trust can open this up. PS: The ALogorithm can stay closed, it is the manual processes and management decisions that need to be exposed.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06884302236494189975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6479491108286515994.post-37577491316874164092010-02-25T11:41:19.930-05:002010-02-25T11:41:19.930-05:00Google is a monopoly using its power to remove its...Google is a monopoly using its power to remove its competitors. :[Ottohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03596384048346273666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6479491108286515994.post-71802077748247008592010-02-25T10:51:35.478-05:002010-02-25T10:51:35.478-05:00For those who wish to learn the other side of this...For those who wish to learn the other side of this issue please see my post about the EU-Google antitrust investigation, which has copious links to research showing that Google is indeed a monopoly and how it is anticompetitively abusing its monopoly position in many ways. <br />http://googlemonitor.com/2010/foundem-fcc-filing-documents-google-search-network-discrimination-window-into-eu-google-antitrust-case/ <br />Scott Cleland<br />President Precursor LLC <br />Publisher of GoogleMonitor.com, a watchdog site dedicated to making Google more transparent and accountableScott Clelandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12988347224134527288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6479491108286515994.post-9902280603351001052010-02-24T08:07:50.550-05:002010-02-24T08:07:50.550-05:00This is all sour grapes from also ran "compet...This is all sour grapes from also ran "competitors".
