Google Shows It Has Feelings Too
June 9, 2009
I wish I had been present to here this statement reported by the Industry Standard:
There’s a bit of a double standard at work, he argued. When most technical systems have a minor outage, the press doesn’t say anything. On the other hand, if Google has “a service disruption of any size, it gets picked up.”
You can read the original article “Google’s David Girouard on the Company’s Cloud Computing ‘Perception Problem’” here.
Okay, if a service is down, I guess it is okay to pretend the service is working. This is the kinder, software, less logical Google I suppose.
