Insider Report
Insider Report
04/29/2004 07:03 PMThe following is a report from a temp employee of Google about what
things were like today. If you were around Google today, please share
your story. I'm glad "The Announcement" is happening, actually,
because that means that tomorrow it will be over. No more rumors.
We're going public. I'm sure there will still be lots of media around,
particularly when the actual IPO happens in a few months' time, but
until then, there won't be much to report on. The rumors have been
around for so long that the elevated hype this week was pooh-poohed by
many, but it has been crazy around here this week and a total circus
today. At the main (SGI) campus, there have been security guards
manning the entrance to the parking lot all week, and you have to show
your badge to get in. This screens out the media who haven't made
plans with PR in advance to be there - according to a security guard I
talked to, Google gets some very aggressive journalists showing up at
random and is trying to shield employees from being hassled. Today the
local NBC affiliate had a news van outside the parking lot, plus there
were photographers and another news van I didn't recognize. I should
have been tipped off that today was definitely the big day by the
presence of a photographer at the building where I work. As I was
coming in this morning, he was taking pictures of the sign at the
entrance to the parking lot. This was unusual: I'm still at the old
campus, and the media don't come here; there's no security roadblock
in our lot. The front desk girl was calling security on the guy by the
time I had parked my car and walked inside. (She asked, "He's on the
sidewalk?", making me wonder whether the guy could be asked to leave
if he was standing on public property - but photographing private
property. Don't know what the law is around that. There are AP images
of the Google building signs anyway, so it's not like he was getting
an exclusive, never-before-seen shot.) Apparently the day's
announcement was a surprise for Googlers as well. Suddenly this
meeting was called via e-mail, causing other meetings in progress to
be adjourned; everyone dropped everything and vanished. It was like
the plague had struck. We temps were not informed, but had to put two
and two together from the sudden exodus and from the e-mail we
received announcing that the cafe (which is huge and has a stage with
a sound system, usually used for DJs and jam bands at lunch) would be
closed until 1 due to "a special event." A coworker and I tried to
gatecrash and got as far as walking up to the cafe from the inside
hallway, seeing the backs of hundreds of people and hearing the voice
of whoever was at the mic, before being turned away by security for
having the wrong color (temp) badge. There was a BBQ grill going
outside that we were welcome to peruse, though, so we got food and sat
down to wait and watch. All we could see were the backs of people
visible through the sliding glass doors; the rest of the cafe was
under whiteout conditions, with blinds pulled to block all views
inside. This is impressive since the entire front facade of the cafe,
which is about three stories high, is made of windows! We observed
lots of periodic clapping, and there was a Q&A session after the main
piece had been said. Eventually people spilled out into the sunshine.
Sadly, I saw no one run out of the building yelling, "I'm rich! I'm
rich! I'm filthy rich!" I did see Larry Page go by looking bemused but
snazzy in a colorful striped button-down shirt - and it looked like he
was wearing his best sneakers. We grabbed someone we knew, who told
us, "I think we're doing the right thing." I hope that's true. Thanks
to our contributor for this report. Again, if you were around Google,
please tell us your story....

Microsoft's Future, from a Former
insider
Microsoft's Future, from a Former
insider
06/03/2004 12:13 PMJeff Reifman: Microsoft's Sacred Cash Cow. This made me wonder about
Microsoft’s willingness to innovate and compete. Why are
Microsoft products still so difficult to use and so unreliable? Why is
the company improving them so slowly? Is Microsoft losing its
competitive edge? Has the company seen its best days?
This is an interesting contribution to the literature of ex-Microsoft
folks. It's thoughtful, though I don't think the writer appreciates
what $56 billion in cash, a powerful monopoly and the willingness to
do
anything to preserve the monopoly can mean in the future.
I believe we've not seen the height of Microsoft's powers. Through
threats and willing helpers or possibly outright proxies, it's already
aiming "intellectual property" laws against open-source software. And
it has made no bones about further such plans.
Microsoft also does improve products when it has competition, such as
in the smart-phone and handheld arenas where its operating system
entries are getting much better. The people in charge at Microsoft may
be ethics-challenged, but a lot of smart and basically honorable
people work for them, wanting to do the right thing themselves. They
often do.
See also Dave Stutz' valuable essay, "Advice to
Microsoft regarding commodity software" -- another hard look from
an well-clued insider who left.

I don’t think I’ve ever mentioned it here, but
I’m a rabid baseball fan. I love the game. I love to watch it,
play it, and coach it. I even like to read about it, and I’ve
often felt that you can learn a lot about managing a company from
baseball. Jeff Angus feels the same way.
Angus is a former baseball reporter and current management
consultant. His blog, Management by Baseball
takes lessons learned from baseball news and applies them to business
management. MBB is full of well-written,
thoughtful analysis and I’ve been learning a lot about both
baseball and business as I read it. I rarely go back and read through
all the archives of new blogs that I discover, but I find myself
working backward through MBB and I’m
sure I’ll be disappointed to reach the end.

"Have you seen my baseball glove?"
"Why do you need your baseball glove at 10:30 on a Saturday night?"
Normally, the answer to this question would involve me making mildly
to extremely inappropriate suggestions involving a trip to trashy
lingerie and some Jack Daniels . . . but I was faced with a serious
problem. I had a fever, and the only prescription was my baseball
glove!
"I'm going to Dodger Stadium with my dad tomorrow morning for their
Father's Day 'play catch with dad in the outfield' event, and I need
my glove!"

Last month I went to an all-day umpiring workshop, and today was the
Little League Opening Day parade. As a side-effect, I’m feeling
rather culturally well-rooted, not to mention erudite: two strikes on
the batter, a foul-tip bounces off the catcher’s mask into the air,
the third basemen charges in and catches it; is the batter out? Or...
runners on first and second, pop fly to third, infield-fly rule
called, the ball bounces off the third baseman’s glove through foul
territory into the dugout, what happens? Then there’s the crash and
howl of the bagpipe band as hundreds of bright-clad children march
onto the immaculate infield grass... Opening Day!...
