Microsoft Slams "Perfect" Google Again
Forget the previous Microsoft party line on Google, where Microsoft admitted to being "stupid" in falling behind in the search space. Now it seems to be one of snicker at Google's success. Spotted via Search Engine Lowdown, Microsoft cofounder Bill Gates said during a conference last week in apparently sarcastic tones:
Google is still perfect; the bubble is floating, and they can do everything.
This follows on Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer suggesting indirectly earlier this month that Google was a "one-hit wonder" that "nobody thinks can do any wrong."
Google, of course, does plenty of wrong. More on that and Ballmer's remarks in my past post, Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer: Google "One-Hit Wonder".
