So Google, You’ll Be Dropping Support For Flash Next, Right?

Quite frankly, I’m sick of Google taking stands for “open” and “doing what’s right” only conveniently when it’s in their best interest to do so. It’s fine to be a company with interests. Just be honest about them. Don’t feed us bullshit and call it filet mignon. We can smell it. And taste it. And spit it back at you. - http://techcrunch.com/2011/01/11/google-flash/

Can Google Get Its Mojo Back?

Once upon a time, Google was the coolest place for a techie to work. Not any more. While I can’t quantify this, I’m confident that most engineers will agree: somehow, over the last 18 months, their aura has faded and their halo has fallen. Once their arrogance was intimidating and awesome. Now it just seems clueless. - http://techcrunch.com/2011/01/08/google-mojo/
