Information Week has an article discussing how the latest data shows Google's search market share at an all-time high. Which obviously means that market share for Yahoo and MSN is rapidly going down the fucking tubes. No wonder there's a lot of bitching and moaning going on about the 800 pound gorilla's stranglehold on the search market. But, as the article puts it... While Google's lead in search is formidable, on some levels, it's beneficial for the entire Internet marketing and computing industries. "Google is alarming in the same way that Wal-Mart is alarming: It forces competitors to change," they say. "There's still room for companies like Microsoft, as well as small startups, to challenge Google on a number of fronts." Mmmm, Don't know if Microsoft and Yahoo would agree with that opinion! In my humble opinion... These guys will own the fucking universe if that keep executing they way they have been doing since day one.

Don't fuck with me!
And remember, they're *not* getting into the ad agency business.

Google isn't an 800 lbs Gorilla... Google is a monster...
Perhaps it's only people like myself that do this for a living that see it... but these guys control the entire flow of information online... they can put a level of censorship out there that Washington wishes it had.
If google doesn't rank you.. you don't have a voice... period.
