Well, not really. But I want free stuff from Google and apparently, if you say Google Sucks on your blog, you may get a freebee from Google.
Yesterday I reported that Google Transit Sends Upset User Superman Cape. Yes, they did!
One guy almost died trying to cross over an eight-lane highway on foot, based on Google Transit's suggestion. OK, fine, he didn't almost die because he was smart enough not to attempt crossing an eight-lane highway on his tricycle. But he blogged that Google told him to. And guess what it got him? A Super Man Cape from a Googler.
Well, did I once tell you that I used Google Maps to drive back from SES Toronto. I got to the USA / Canadian border and they arrested me!
Well not really. They asked me a billion questions and the border, then asked me to drive my car into this small garage. Then they asked me and my friend to step out of the car and wait in a small room. Then after checking some things about me and the car, they said I can go.
So I almost got put in jail for life because of Google Maps! Who knows, maybe, just maybe, I could have been sentenced to death! Maybe!
To make things worse, after I got back on the highway. Within 1 minute, I truck picked up a rock from it's back wheel and it hit my windshield and cracked it. As I drove the 6 hours or so back, the tiny crack grew to cover the whole windshield of the car. Good thing insurance covered it but I almost fell out of the car while driving because the windshield could have fallen of the car. Yes, I blame Google Maps!
Google Sucks until I get something free from them. ;-)

Anything for a freebee!
I nearly drowned after following the Google Maps advise to swim the Atlantic last week, should I ask for a free pair of goggles :)

True, drowning is a worse death then getting crushed by a pebble.

At SES San Jose, Google maps made it look like a short walk to the Bodog party. After walking over the interstate and wondering if I was ever going to make it, I finally got there. It was several miles... but the map made it look like a short walk. I must need new shoes after all that. :)

Did you know google keeps search records and IP information on anyone that search's with there search engine. They have come under alot of hostility with the privacy rights lobbyist's and others for there privacy infringement. They have been collecting this infomation for over 5 years and is speculated that the information will be sold in the future.
Also more recently google, siding with moveon.org, removed anti-moveon.org websites from there advertising list. Some speculate that it has ties to the Moveon.org website that attacked our countries General with a Times ad. I for one am starting to grow a little scared of the worlds largest search engine.
Just remember i told you so when google starts watching your every move on the internet and taking ther own political agendas to the web sites they host.
watch out here comes big brother!!

Google is overstepping their bounds. Just walking down the street in San Francisco might get you on their street view on Google maps. What if I choose to pick out my wedgie when the thing takes my pic?

Don't you think that putting all your trust to any electronic maps and/or generated directions is not smart !!!
Who claims that there are no mistakes, errors, misunderstandings?
THINK BEFORE YOU DO.
GOOGLE SUCKS !#!

The more I think about it, google does suck. Too bad millions of people wtill believe that Google is a good search engine. Well, people, this may not be such a good alternative, but in a way it's even better than google. With free prizes and rewards that you can win, you should try this site out. It is connectd with a lot of similar search engines that have the same results and use the sam engine, but they give you different prizes. Please try this out. I need more of what they call swag bucks. I want one of the etched iPod Nanos. They are really nice! Link: http://prizewish.prodege.com/?cmd=sb-register&rb=90133
Remember people, please try it out, a helluva lot better than Google. They give you prizes and they use a combined ask.com and google search engine.

People, if you don't like Google, don't fucking use it! Shut the fuck up and use yahoo or some other search engine.

I ended up crossing the bridge and got lost in Harlem, NYC and got 2 tickets in the same day following damn Google maps to travel between 2 cities in North NJ.

You're a complete moron, not that I like Google either.

Google sucks big time.
They do not have the manners or courtsey to repsond to AdSense appeals.
They banned me because of clickfraud, when I never even had my ads on any site.

Google is an okay company, but they tend to forget that we as a publisher are also human beings living on this big great dirt world, and we also need to survive out here.
