Very interesting DickMN,
But I am still leary! It sounds quite reminiscent and freaky how Brin from Google is talking here about all this right now.
Frankly, it reminds me of those old days when Steve Kirsch and Harry Motro of INFOSEEK used to talk about things!!!!!
Google is still currently my search engine of choice, but if they were to announce an IPO, I'd be hesitant to quickly jump on the stock holding bandwagon.
Like Infoseek USED to be, google.com is a GREAT Search engine, but we all know that SEARCH is not the end all for users. Remember how we used to talk about CONTENT?
To me, content is still KING!
And quite frankly, not a one of the major websites today has fully learned that lesson! Not Yahoo! Not GO.COM (Disney). Not Amazon! And certainly NOT EBAY!
My idea of CONTENT may be far far removed from all of those giants, but I do have an idea that would far exceed their strongest attempts. But I ain't sharing that thought .... YET!
Now, if only the execs at Google would like to counsel with me on this! Who knows what could happen?????????????
