"Our Google Overlords
I like Google as much as the next guy. I’m actually quite dependent on Google for searching the web and usenet.
That said, I’m officially jumping off the Google bandwagon.
It’s not because they released a web analytics competitor to Blogbeat. It’s not because they let security flaws linger in their email apps.
It’s because they are breaking the golden rule: Don’t be evil.
Jamie said it best, “absolute power corrupts absolutely.” It would appear that Google plans to own the internet much the same way Wal-Mart owns retail. (Read Robert Cringely for more on this.)
Do we really need another Wal-Mart? Especially on a platform such as the internet, where we’ve seen unprecedented individualism and creativity, and small business thrive so easily?
Update: Excellent post by Paul Graham on how Google is “Web 2.0″.
