  • Oh, sure! NOW it is out there… but it wasn’t when they hyped it, and I first checked. And notice how the photos don’t match the articles? I still say, “Fail!”

  • Even Google wasn’t Google when it started. I suppose the bar is set higher now, but give them a chance, and lets see what they are in a month or a year. It has to be a daily learning experience for them. I do wonder where some of the pictures they use did come from though.

  • True. That is a good point. I guess the problem was that they let loose the “hype engines” (news media) too early… they should have been better prepared before drawing world attention to themselves. But, yes, you are right, we will see if they continue to improve. I am all for competition!
