I disagree. Honestly, Google isn&#39;t really pushing anything all that<br>advanced.<br><br>They aren&#39;t innovating, they are just beating people on quality.<br><br>They didn&#39;t &quot;invent&quot; searching they just made it 1000 times better than the
<br>next guy.<br><br>They didn&#39;t &quot;invent&quot; gmail, they just had to not be hotmail.<br>They didn&#39;t &quot;invent&quot; google maps, they just had to make it prettier.<br>They didn&#39;t &quot;invent&quot; writely, they bought it.
