"kindred spirit"... i do not think it means what you think it means. at best you can say they play nice sometimes, but really... come on. i'm sure Google will release a mac version of Chrome (or will let the open source community tackle that mission), but they never did release a mac version of Google Talk (and Apple took for ever to get compatible with Java 5)... in the classic words of my brother: "they're all Borgs with crap for us to purchase." FF3 is still king in my book, plus google's privacy policies are at odds with my own sense of self-preservation. inspite: i agree with you about the "action", although not as many people jumped on the Python wagon as i would have thought after Google backed it. somehow Ruby still reared its head... and then there was all that Scala and Erlang and Aspect-Oriented programming jibba-jabba... hmmmm...

Tue, 02 Sep 2008 13:07:22 +0000 http://inspite.wordpress.com/?p=323#comment-72 I love Google. Being a Mac user, I feel that Google is a kindred spirit. They understand the fine art of making things "just work". I have loved every Google product that I've ever used. Gmail is great, iGoogle is great, Picasa is great. If, with Chrome, Google continues their already stellar track record, then Firefox will be given a run for their money which they could use right about now to help them get the lead out. And I'm just looking for someone who can help topple IE. Worst. Browser. Ever. I love Google. Being a Mac user, I feel that Google is a kindred spirit.
