Blake Ross on Google - Trust is hard to gain, easy to lose.

 
Blake Ross takes some time to look at what Google is doing around decorating the HTML you get back when you do certain queries. HTML decorating to throw in pointers to Google properites.
[...] in many ways, Google’s new age “bundling” is far worse than anything Microsoft did or even could do. Microsoft threw spaghetti at the wall and hoped it stuck, and likewise there’s nothing wrong with Google’s arbitrary front-page ads. The difference here is that Google knows what users want and can discreetly recommend its products at the right time.
