The Google Dichotomy
I love Google
I Hate Google
I love Google as a user. I use it all day. I love Google earth, maps, search & all the cool research & robot cars, moon challenge and stuff.
I hate Google as a customer. I cant do anything I want to do with Google as an advertiser. I cant run arbitrage, I cant do straight up affiliate stuff, Its too expensive to buy ads without mountains of complicated meaningless work & SEO is even worse.
Even If I were to bend over backward & provide for the "user experience" I would be doing so in fear of Google. Not out of love for the reward from Google as those rewards only seem to come to the few, the great & the early adopters.
What can I say - I don't want to do business with Google very much.
Google success is for the few, the great & the early adopters. In many respects Google sucks as a business partner.
Just as Ebay came to suck having been a godsend for so many for so long. Google now sucks also.
