"The search product cycle is coming to an end, however, and if Google wants to become an exciting growth company again--if it wants its stock to become a winning growth stock again--it needs another huge product to pick up where AdWords and AdSense (mostly AdWords) are leaving off. Specifically, to invoke the great growth company of the last tech wave, it needs to find the Office to accompany its Windows (AdWords)." - Dave Winer from Bookmarklet

"Product cycle" end & economic crisis. - Igor Poltavskiy
