    But they did! They hand-coded each and every page in the Google database.

    You don't have to make things from scratch to be considered self made. According to your definition Sam Walton is a moron because he didn't make bunny slippers or any of his other products.

    He developed a business model that was revolutionary at the time.

    Google changed the way search was done...and for that they aren't morons.

    As far as your "They only care about sales" comments...Look through this forum. How many business people here are in business purely to benefit the masses....None. We all want to make money. Thats is what capitalism is about and it doesn't make you a moron.

    LOL I can't believe you would try and find a flaw in something that's so meaningless. I mean its just a quote, it's not a lie or a false statement. Sorry to have to say this but "GET OFF THE MAN'S D*CK"

    Hey all this is wrong, Google does care about you and they love you and want to collect every little bit of information they can about you, come on man.....

    How could you say something like that when they are so interested in you :confused:

    They give you free blogs, free e-mail, free searches, free desktop with hard drive search, what is there to hate :confused: :eek:

    Goo wants you :eek:

    Yup; and before the slippers he was selling those "college girls gone wild" video tapes on the streets of Arkansas (they didn't have DVD's back then.)

    In the US, they commonly refer to Wal-Mart as WallyWorld... I thought the owner was a guy named Wally...

    You should read Sam Walton's autobiography. Love or hate Walmart at this stage, its a damn good read and full of really good and sound business advice and ideas.

    I inherited that from my Yorkshire mom: If it's a bargain, I'm in... if it's something I actually need or will at any time in my life find a use for, bonus! :D
