Google Blog II
Google has responded to the criticism raised by many journalists and bloggers concerning their new googleblog.
It appears that Google wants us to consider the blog as a 'beta' or part of their google labs and give them the 'benefit of the doubt' for a bit until they learn the rules.
Blogs are living things. Ours was just born and is still adjusting to the loud noises and the bright lights. It's gonna be awhile before we get our driver's license, so you decide if you want to sit in the passenger seat while we figure out which one's the gear shift and which is the turn signal. One way or another, it should be an interesting ride.
I cannot agree more with the fact that blogs are living entities. Blogs are there not as monologues but as 'hearing aids' as well and it is good to see that Google has responded to the bad comments about their blog.
However, I do not find the 'wait a while till we get our driving license' statement quite reassuring to the investors who will soon put their money on the Google IPO.
It looks to me as if Google doesnt really know why they should have a blog for their business.
In spite of all that, I am certainly giving them a 'benefit of the doubt'. It is just that my expectations are very high.
