Great title Jordan! Hooked me indeed. There will come a day when Google is forgotten, I wonder when…

@ Rich
Actually, I would say its more like a kid with an A+ perfect score average coming home with an A+ in the 98% percentile:P haha

It does seem a bit silly. I guess it’s like a kid with an A+ average coming home with an A.

Anytime you call Google “losers”, I am sure I am not the only one that will chuckle

LOL – it was a great title, now I need to go think of some funny headlines.

I agree with Janet on this one. The best headline ever in MP (no offense, Andy). The thing I don’t agree on is that they’re not doing well in buying every business they can get their hands on. Eventually they will own the market (literally). Am I frightened? Hell yeah!

What do they expect, there are only so many people on the planet. Maybe they will start giving free Googleputers to the third world!

Jordan I agree it’s a great title. Now if only I could be as much of a loser as Google.

@Day–I never said tumbled. I said it “fell” 7%.

Perhaps I should have used something less “dramatic,” like “did not go up” or “moved in a nonpositive fashion”?

Your post is amusing .

@Janet–Thanks!

Jordan, I just had to say — LOVE the headline. Perhaps if Google were to actually FOCUS on their core revenue stream (AdWords) instead of acquiring every company they can get their hands on to try to “compete” with Microsoft, they might have had better earnings. Just an observation.

While Google certainly posted a miss today, is it fair to say that the stock “tumbled” after hours? For further consideration click here:

As Google’s revenue numbers start to flatten, I wonder if they’ll start issuing guidance.
