TIME with Google
The 3 amigos appeared on the front of TIME magazine this week, you know, Page, Brin and Schmidt. Very interesting article that gives a glimpse at the serious and humurous sides of each. I like this quote from Larry:
We don’t generally talk about our strategy … because it’s strategic. I would rather have people think we’re confused than let our competitors know what we’re going to do. That’s an easy trade-off.
Maybe they are smarter than all the butterfly-kissing critics out there. I don’t think a day goes by when I don’t see another wisecracker going off about how Google is losing its focus, how they should stick to search, and how the company must be run by a bunch of imbeciles. While that may be true in time, I for one am willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. They’ve created the envy of the Valley, successfully gone public and dropped some very cools apps, all without sacrificing an inch of search engine marketshare.
