How true it is! - nouman1989, on 10/26/2009, -8/+36Google haz taught us not to use Bing.Thanks for that google
- borez, on 10/26/2009, -1/+17Right place, right time... simple interface.
- michirican123, on 10/26/2009, -0/+15He went to my high school, East Lansing High, got made fun of, made a boatload of cash, refuses to have any contact them. My english teacher told me that she should have been nicer to him. lol
- newbpainter, on 10/26/2009, -0/+15it's simple, and doesn't sell peice of ***** hosting called "yahoo small biz". Give people what they need and want at a fair price (omg free, and the text ads aren't giant ass ads that give people seizures), and suddenly you have a successful company.
- mynameisteejay, on 10/26/2009, -1/+14One thing lmgtfy.com has taught us:
1. Lazy ***** find it more convenient to bother you with their question rather than google it for themselves. - wards16, on 10/27/2009, -0/+1311. That people like it when the product does what it says it will do.
- jeremiahjw, on 10/27/2009, -0/+10Google is better than Yahoo!
- shiftyroach, on 10/26/2009, -8/+1411. because your name is google, you can get away with having the butt-ugliest logo in the world
- SirLowKey, on 10/26/2009, -0/+5Aha! a portmanteau like "frenemy" in Dutch would be "Conculega".
Nice article about my favorite company to-work-for- one-day! - Rockkybox, on 10/26/2009, -0/+5Fly me to the moon.
- RawrSpoon, on 10/27/2009, -0/+3Did the author REALLY compare AOL to Google?
- neonfish7, on 10/26/2009, -1/+4the logo doesn't matter either way
- geopiscean, on 10/27/2009, -0/+3Thanks Google for teaching us a lot...
- explodingzebras, on 10/27/2009, -0/+3you can replicate it with videosurf plugin for firefox
- Izzmo, on 10/26/2009, -4/+6This article is ridiculous. "Because vision is required"? Hell, if you start a company, you have a vision. What a stupid remark.
This author should not be writing. - nathanbutnet, on 10/26/2009, -0/+2Are you going to go with a platoon?
- sorepheet, on 10/27/2009, -0/+2In Google we trust.
- lorddazzer, on 10/27/2009, -1/+3This is a short tune:
"A wish is a boon"
Spell cast with a rune.
Whale killed by harpoon.
I will tell you soon.
I like this cartoon.
Butterfly Cocoon.
Arrakis, or Dune.
A Mafia Goon.
He makes them all swoon.
Damn that speeding hoon. - markgl, on 10/26/2009, -5/+7Gag me with a spoon.
- markgl, on 10/27/2009, -0/+2At noon, soon.
- Myztry, on 10/27/2009, -0/+2If the same wasn't true for Microsoft's acquisition of QDOS then Microsoft would've gone the way of the Basic interpreter.
- tigersmile, on 10/27/2009, -0/+2The thing I love about this article is how it describes how google's philosophy and their business plan combine to make them the success they are. I don't follow the 'google story' but from what I'm reading here it seems to me they are a very 'human' company. If google continues this way and if this is a trend on the net, it bodes well for us all.
- ratnacage, on 10/27/2009, -0/+2wat
- sccrplyr40, on 10/27/2009, -0/+2Does this mean I get to wear two crowns since I'm an engineer and a customer?
- RawrSpoon, on 10/27/2009, -0/+1As you wish :D
- mustbeoi, on 10/27/2009, -0/+1GOOD ARTICLE. Thanks.
- sorepheet, on 10/27/2009, -0/+1::bare TFTFY
- esc27, on 10/27/2009, -1/+2Truth is a lot more simple. Google was the first to recognize the importance of combining search with ads and build a hugely successful ad based empire. Everything else has come from the sheer amount of capital they have to throw at projects. A good culture helps, but they would be successful even if run like a dictatorship (example: Apple...)
- Mujokan, on 10/27/2009, -0/+1Personally I think time is long but life is short.
- mister711, on 10/27/2009, -0/+1google taught me not to use www. for website search
- Helloween2008, on 10/27/2009, -0/+1logos aren't about how "nice" they are. it's all about brand recognition. for example, the following site has an arguably "better" logo than Google, but they will never have the same brand penetration as Google http://imgur.com/7rHc2.jpg
- Mujokan, on 10/27/2009, -0/+1"And I mean that in a good way"
- ihavefrowned, on 10/27/2009, -0/+0That's not what the man was trying to say. He meant "bear".
- jv2k, on 10/27/2009, -1/+1Seriously. I went in expecting some serious insight but instead I got the author trying way too hard.
- mstachiw, on 10/27/2009, -1/+1"Life is long but time is short..."
So make sure you bring some phonebooks to sit on when you have time for dinner. - joanncorley, on 10/27/2009, -1/+0This article continues to affirm the reason I'm in the work that I am of management and leadership development...specializing in the "human side of enterprise." As I read through the article it's clear that what has made Google successful are the qualities and behaviors of it's founders....passion, focus, vision, and the way they treat those in their organization. These are qualities of the heart, mind and spirit. These qualities are not calculated on a balance sheet, but greatly effect one.
The bottom line? A successful business enterprise must have authentic leadership and is about behavior, human potential, motivation, values, judgement combined with a product or service that adequately meets the needs of their customers.

- c14h, on 10/26/2009, -6/+0haha
- ihavefrowned, on 10/27/2009, -6/+0The underlying question is whether allowing ALL of humanity to die rather than a subset of humanity is moral. Bear in mind that whether or not you kill that subset, they'll die anyway with the rest of humanity.
If you do it, you'll be committing genocide, but would you be right in doing so?
