Google = Money grubbing

Okay so I'm fed up with google for many reasons (most important of which is that hundreds of our internal product pages have been buried for months while my main index page is still #3 for a HUGELY competitive serp.

But, now this: Froogle, which has been almost useless for us (but for which we still had hope) is now gone from Google's home page and replaced by.....TA DA!!! Video feeds.

Google obviously cares more about youtube WIPING THE FLOOR with video and trying to cash in. I realize that google is out to make money but this is the most blatant attempt to play catch up that i've seen in a long time.

I'm praying MSN get's more people to use their search engine.

Completely fed up with Google

Hi mike,

yes it looks like Google are going from one PR (pardon the pun) disaster to another these days, the most recent of which I had heard about was the controversy surrounding Google Checkout.

Hope they wise up soon for all our sakes.

Cheers,
Paz.

I won't be surprised if they kill Froogle soon, just as they did with Google Answers...
