Yes, I know they’ve been watched. They must have been
watched, mustn’t they, or else they wouldn’t
be in my freggin’ Watch History!
Would they? No.
Why is it that everything in which Google gets involved has
to become pointlessly, irrationally, and irritatingly fiddle-faddled about
with? Is it just that they don’t have enough to do, maybe? Or is it some quirk
of human nature that those involved with computer software lose all track of
reason? You should see the way MSN are screwing up the once-reliable Hotmail
service since they combined it with Outlook. Did I ask them to do that? Did
anybody? Does it really serve any useful purpose, or is it simply there to
drive me into a steaming rage when dear old MSN sends seventeen of my private
emails to the wrong person? That’s what they did recently. Really. They did it,
not me.
Yes, I know that Google provides the very blog on which I’m
now ranting, and I am grateful. I am. But why can’t they keep their activities
simple, functional, and logical? Why can’t they leave the irrational and often
dysfunctional stuff to the top politicians whose careers seem to thrive in proportion
to their lack of brain power. Politics is a power game; computer software is a
service industry, so is it unreasonable to expect the software houses to serve
with care and common sense?
