    When do we slashbots start hating google for becoming too big?

      Never say that you "hate" Google.

      When Google becomes self-aware, I'd prefer not to be known as a Google-hater.

    The Mozilla Foundation should register mozsearch.com then start buying up shares in Google but denying they have an interest in search... it would serve absolutely not purpose but it would create a hell of a lot of hype and speculation.

    So does by linking the entire article description mean that most Slashdotters are having poor eyesite problems? It's getting harder and harder to see where the little mouse cursor is located so screw it, just link the whole damn thing and click-click-click away til you get it.

    Here we go again! I cant wait for the next "google rumor of the week." "Google has been said to have tested their own Google-brand cold fusion ractor, codenamed GFuse. However, this comes with little fan-fare as next month they are expected to unveil their anti-matter warp core and time travel device."
