You simply cannot be serious, I hope you're being sarcastic. Everyone on this thread has pointed out valid reasons, all to which I agree. G has nothing to do with quality, it's all money. They have a long history of "products" that ruined the internet and millions of websites due to their abuse. PageRank for one example; where they couldn't care less about quality nor content,
only who links to the page,
which has been abused since day one which caused the spawn of billions of bogus useless webpages and websites, all which did well over that of the hard working legit site owners' websites only because not enough people had the need to link to them.
PR; which by G's
own admission and statement that it's "
the measure of a quality and usefulness of a website".
Then there is Gmail, a heaven-sent product for cyber-terrorists and spammers with endless storage space--where nefarious scumbags can create an infinite number of email accounts to engage in various forms of harassment and cyber-terrorism with totally impunity (
without ever having to give valid contact info) ; thanks to G's
total ignorance of their very own "window dressing" TOS which states to the contrary.
This is just yet another Pandora's Box of abuse where your competitors can destroy your business....and, I'm not surprised coming from them.
