Interesting perspective. The failure of Gmail yesterday for a couple of hours gives one pause to think about how many eggs we're putting in this one basket.

<P>From a development perspective, many of Google's tools are in perpetual beta, 
and the company is falling into the trap of adding rather than fixing. The 
company is adding all manner of tools to its arsenal but significant bugs remain 
in existing offerings.
<P>Google undoubtedly invents some cool stuff, but perhaps it's time to stop 
acquiring or creating new technology and to spend a little time getting this 
stuff right. </P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.builderau.com.au/blogs/bricksandmortar/soa/Google-going-too-far-/0,339027603,339242126,00.htm">the author's central assertion is solid. His concern is that Google is straying 
from its goal of building the best search engine it can and is increasingly 
putting its fingers in more and more pies.</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/A5C9A6C5-9130-4DE8-98E8-B17F4386B845/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
