    However, humbleness missed a spot with that +4.6? number you can make out there.

    "I suspect a fair number of google hating IP goes to MS VARs, partners or Redmond."

    I can't speak for the rest of the 'Google Haters', but I think I've probably been labeled as one by now. It is common for people to be characterized/stereotyped/grouped into simple simple names. I don't hate Google, but I have expressed caution at their growth. The bigger they get, the more money they need. The more money they need, the greater the likelihood they'll do something the average Slashdotter will describe as 'evil'.

    This sort of cautionary tale does not require hatred of Google or love of Microsoft. Google has services a lot of us rely on. Google makes money from advertising. Google has competition. Google had stockholders who want money. Amazingly, lots of people around here are grabbing their ankles over Google without a care in the world. For all the 'sky is falling!' preminitions around here, that one just simply went through.

    In any event, don't assume I hate Google or love Microsoft or pop a woody over karma, I'm just suggesting you cover your ass.
