There is an interesting Business Week article about how Google, despite all the fanfare, has not done so well outside of their core search business, in spite of the amount of buzz and press each new thing Google does receives: http://www.businessweek.com/magazine/content/06_28/b3992051.htm?chan=tc&chan=technology_technology+index+page_more+of+today%27s+top+storiesDefinitely food for thought about trying to do too many things, and only doing one of them really well.

That is a lesson that so few companies seem able to learn. Over the years I have seen many big names go out of business for this very reason.

I am "The Google Queen", just ask my husband  No matter what we're disagreeing about, I'm bound to utter "Just a sec, let me google that and I'll prove I'm right once and for all!"

From: Billybob Goodliffe this is why I use Yahoo! Years ago, I would have never figured that the world would go to two entities with names like Google and Yahoo for fact checking. |
