Working with some excellent people at another startup also helped me show some humility.
Postmortem - I reapplied to Google after 3 years, got hired, and subsequently resigned after 5 months. They're a great company, just wasn't what I was looking for.

Yes, it's free, but the competition is superior. Try JetBrains' TeamCity for a really great build system. Also free within certain limitations (3 build machines, 20 builds) - and much more professional.
The reason Google is keeping logs is to improve search results. If they know what an individual user searches for, they can improve his personal search results and the global search results as well.
