Google is getting slammed lately! (Score 1)

llah, have you been reading the blogs and news lately? some are perceiving Google as the new Evil Empire supplanting MS. Of course, a lot of people are giving them a break to prove themselves since they've just embarked on this new path to world domination. The Web 2.0 crowd (excuse that term, I hate it myself) is going kind of gaga over Yahoo lately. They're doing some cool things. I think some people do have problems with Yahoo's changing half the stuff they buy. But they haven't messed with Flickr too much, and this is one of the things that is giving people a lot of confidence in Yahoo lately. Google is trying to do too much too fast and acting plain weird. That whole thing with Eric Schmidt not talking to CNET because they published info about him they found on GOOGLE! What fools. I love Google, but some of their new stuff ain't that cool. Gmail is hot, their maps are hot. But MS and Yahoo are showing stuff that is actually more compelling (I didn't say delivering, especially in the case of MS). I think they have a long way to go in proving MS Live. Meanwhile, the blogosphere is debating whether Google is the next Evil Empire, and for the most part applauding Google.
