Google’s earnings knocked one out of the park last week but in other areas, things aren’t going as well. Google Chairman Eric Schmidt had to testify in front of Congress that Google wasn’t like Microsoft, and the rules that applied to that company didn’t apply to his. Evidently unhappy with just cornering the Web advertising market, Google wanted to corner the market on arrogance as well. This was followed by an internal email that once again showcased that Google executives don’t use or understand their own products, followed by Eric Schmidt getting a Google+ account. Welcome to your own product Eric!
