Re: Cold hard numbers

Sorry, I disagree.

Google does hire the smartest folks on the planet.

But that doesn't produce absolute results.

Instead, they let them crank out stuff, throw the s** up on on the wall, and see what sticks. Witness the "success" of Google Video, and the subsequent financial performance of the YouTube acquisition. Witness the "free Wifi" efforts. What happened to Deja? How will they make any money on GrandCentral?

There is a limit to how much you can give away and show a profit. Google may be the best at it, but they can't prevent someone else from coming along and giving away more.
