Re: Someone at Google needs to put down the pipe.

They are an advertising company first and foremost.

That you don't find it inconsistent with good public stewardship (which is the cloak they drape upon themselves) that they bid in an auction they had no intention of winning just to get PR pretty much ends this discussion. Microsoft or Yahoo are not relevant because, surprise!, they didn't bid nor did they make a bunch of noise going into the auction trying to drum up support for a cause they had no intent of advancing.

How long have you had a grudge against Google?

And also, what do you make of their mobile operating system they're working on?

Again, Google has/is offering me services that everyone else is too tepid to; for fear of stepping on the toes of wireless providers. Sure, at&t can bundle in whatever crap software they want to put in Android in order to get it on the network, but I'll never use it.

How long have you been a blind supporter?

I have no grudge against them or any other company until they pull a slimy stunt like this.

Since they offered Gmail, Picasa, Google Maps, Google Reader, Google Groups...Hm, give me 5min, I can think of a few more.
