All, and Vint,

  What' up with this Vint?  Market share falling?  Well if so, maybe,
if not certantly had Google taken our members advice regarding
cleaning up Googles search engine in respe to respecting individuals
privacy and security your revinue and market share would not have
taken a bit if a nose dive..  Heck, I've seen ads on some web trading
sites offering Unlocked Android phones for as low as $75!

  Is Google ready yet to change their TOS and clean up their DNS
security and privacy?

canceled the traditional cash holiday bonus reportedly as much as
$20K-$30K per Googler and substituted an unlocked Google Android

dogfood a product and make it even better!'" Update: 12/23 01:09 GMT
by  http://slashdot.org/~kdawson/ KD : A reader pointed out that
comments to the article note a couple of inaccuracies: the Android 
phone being offered is an unlocked dev model, which goes for $400; 
and the reporter may have confused holiday bonuses with performance 
bonuses. The former have traditionally been in the range of $1,000, 
according to two comments.
