Who's Afraid of Google?

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the in-the-end-there-can-be-only-one dept.

Khuffie writes "Wired has an interesting article about who's afraid of Google: in short, almost everyone! "Even in the early days, its ultimate goal was extravagant: to organize the world's information. High-minded as that sounds, Google's ever-expanding agenda has put it on a collision course with nearly every company in the information technology industry: Amazon.com, Comcast, eBay, Yahoo!, even Microsoft.""

    It is hard to be afraid of Google when they're sending you checks every month.
    Microsoft and Yahoo never found a way to deal me into their growth the way that Google has.

    And apparently, I'm not the only one who feels this way.

    I'm pretty sure that he was referring to pre-pubescent children.

    But go ahead and twist the arguement. It makes it obvious you have no chance of making your point.
