The head of Google *Search right now is the same guy that was head of yahoo search when it was dying. To put all of this in perspective.
FTFY
Thanks.
Being a CEO must be amazing. You can fail and even bring an entire company down, and keep on getting the same job somewhere else.
He has experience and obviously that means he learned a lesson after failing at a job that requires being a belligerent asshole to get.
I get your point but from a business perspective Google is doing pretty well (see last quarterly earning and they announced dividends for the first time). It's good to be a shareholder and from that perspective the CEO is doing a good job.
Time and time again markets have shown, within reason, poor user experience and anti-consumer policies do not negatively impact stock price.
Revenue is a lag indicator
Sure but Google Search has been crappy for many quarters.
I'm not saying thats how it should be, I'm just pointing out what is.
^This guy has an MBA
lol I don't. The earnings report is public.
Of the company doesn't even have to collapse, you just have to make it seem like it did. Lehman Brothers didn't go bankrupt in the sense of the word a normal person thinks. If you or I go bankrupt it means ramen for dinner for the next decade. For Lehman it was just a strategic move.
Prabhakar Raghavan. Name and shame! You can thank this douchebag for Google's tumble down a cliff.
yahoogle
That argument it's fallacious and reductionist, I'm not denying the situation it's messed up, but objectively speaking we all have 0 idea about who's making what decisions and how this google search shitstorm was caused
check this out later
I dislike the entire article. Of course google search still works just fine. Claiming otherwise is only possible by magnifying a small, admittedly disfunctioning part of google search.
