    I heard that Italy's anti-trust watchdog is investigating Big G's treatment of Italian newspapers of its news site and search engine.

    Do you think their complaint makes even less sense than we thought?

    Yeah, we'll wait and see -- the biggest issue is copyright infringement - the newspapers hate that google is sending them traffic, they wish that people go to their site first and the idea that they travel through the medium is "ridiculous" -- It's one of those old-school ideas not fitting in with the modern mold.
