I think I just discovered a new emotion. Simultaneous feelings of excitement and disappointment.

No matter how great the idea, it's hard to stay excited for more than a few microseconds at the sight of the word "Google". I can already hear the gravediggers shovels preparing a plot in the Google graveyard, and hear the sobs of the people who built their lives, workflows, even jobs and businesses around something that will be tossed aside as soon as it stops being someone's pet play-thing at Google.

A strange ambivalent feeling of hope already tarnished with tragedy.
