Is Google Too Smart For Its Own Good?

An anonymous reader writes in with a piece in Fortune speculating on what's next for Google. The writer believes that a supersaturated solution of very smart people, plus stock that may have run out of upside, will yield what he calls Son of Google — a large wave of innovative companies created by Google graduates. And a Google less intent on hiring, and less able to hire, the very smartest people around. Could happen.

    Excuse me... (AKA Mod down at will, but,) English, motherfucker! Do you speak it. You mean former Google employees, right? Google doesn't have a college as far as I'm aware of!

    I find it weird that with all Google's allegedly supertalented employees, not one of them have gone for a quick Linux makeover to have a GoogleOS. I'm sure that by now, Google's panties would draw enough developer attention to finally make Linux a main course instead of it staying a side-dish.
