Me too. I had to write a report on it too. I found that any SE run by Infospace is actually better than Google because it offers the best restults. Again, it depends on the syntax they accept and the syntax you use.

Gmail and Google Earth are the only things of Google that I use. Picasa has nothing on even PS Elements 1, in my opinion. Google Desktop (infact, any software similar to this) is for people who don't know how to organise their stuff properly. Google Talk isn't really relevant to me, personally.

Now, Jez, crunch this:
Consumer expenditure equivalent to Google profit = 0. If Google monopoly on Internet = %25 and increases to %100, that's a fourfold increase. So if we multiply the consumer expenditure, by the percent of the Internet Google controls, we get 4 x 0.
First person to get the answer wins.

I never said they shouldn't make a profit. Nor did I say they shouldn't make a larger profit than anybody else. All I said is that monopolies are bad in anything. History has taught us this.
