I can't feel too bad about hearing things a few weeks late though, I bet 90% of the people out there never hear about 99% of the stuff that goes on in the tech world, unless they stayed glued to the TV or hold their breath for M$ updates lol. (of course, I have no idea what the next breakthrough medicine, etc. will be... priorities I guess) If I weren't tied up in other stuff at the time and was able to get some GOOG that lovely opening day, I'd be selling 75% of it right NOW! DO NO EVIL MY ASS! Scoble was ranting about this a few weeks back, I sure

Or are you referring to a different API? Well, one may argue with “Google has to open up their search API”. protocol (HTTP) + markup language (HTML) = API. Or are you referring to a different API?

Google is Microsoft just about 3 or 4 years ago. Everybody was concerned what Bill Gates was doing at Microsoft. I would not say that has totally changed, Microsoft is still are a huge player but attention has been shifted to Google who has been putting out new products every other week. So then you have to start looking at product quality. Are all these products of the same quality as the Google search we have all grown to love? I am not so sure they all are. I don't use GMail as a primary email account; since I had my account hacked in June. I use Yahoo Mail and have for over 5 years. I use Pluck’s RSS Reader for RSS aggregation and sometimes use My Yahoo as well for that function. So it appears after the initial buzz of a new Google product dies down and the dust settles, other brands do stand a chance against the onslaught of new Google products. Dave Winer's mention of Google opening their search API was interesting. So I wonder, will knowledge sharing in the form of open API's be the key to a company becoming the next Google?
