Nice interview – it isn’t often though that something smart doesn’t come out of Todd’s mouth whenever something about him gets published online, so it comes as no surprise. :)

The post is actually not long, it is narrow, I will work to drop the navbar out on the right and widen it.

Great interview, Aaron. You might want to Cliff Note it a bit or maybe have subheaders or something though. It reads rather long.

Sorry about that sir, I will repair this right away!

Google will probably throw this interview in the trash because I edited it too many times today, yay how gay, thanks G! ;-(

Killer interview… I kinda like the midly jaded anti-FUD stance Todd takes.

BTW, link to andyhagans.com is broken :-) (couldn’t help myself)

That’s one of your best interviews, Aaron. Thanks to you and to Todd. There’s a great deal of meat there.

I particularly like the big picture view of Google that Todd is giving. I believe a lot in the product-driven/customer-centric grouping of companies. Customer-centric means finding out what customers need and delivering those needs. Microsoft under Bill Gates has been product-driven IMHO. They do it very well but it’s what they think I need rather than what I may really need. It will be interesting to see how Microsoft changes under the Ray Ozzie influence.

To my mind Google is very much towards the product-driven end of the scale. When they move to the right, then they will be more successful and we’ll all be a lot happier.
