IMHO a lot of googlers (especially old timers) believe they were special, here is a news flash. You weren't, Google didn't come with a lot of products. And that's why where Google is right now.


A nearly $2T dollar company and growing? A more successful company than nearly all others in the history of humanity? Yeah, must be terrible for them.


Where it is now? 300B revenue with 11% growth and 96B in earnings with 120B in cash. They are fine.


They were and still are special. They fundamentally changed the web with a better search engine. Also, Android. Also, Chrome. Also, infra required to run YouTube... even if you don't like the end product, the infra is incredible (same for FaceMeta and Netflix).
