    Well you know, way back then I barely knew what a SAT was. Nor did I really have much purpose in life. I just showed up and took a test. I didn't practice really.

    I'm taking the GRE tomorrow. Wish me luck. I practiced like hell for this one.

    Google made its mark by good search results WITH a CLEAN Interface Design.

    Google has forgotten its roots. Sure it might look good in the short term..a new product for more revenue.. But Google will lose in the long term as others offer a clean alternative to Google.

    People want uncluttered.
