It sounds like quotes from old interviews.
He mentions that they "just launched Gmail". Guessing 2004? Not sure why it's appearing 5 years later though.
Yeah, but then he says they launched with 30,000,000 Web pages indexed two years ago. This appears to be a bunch of quotes compiled from different interviews over a span of many years.

Have they lost it? Whom have they lost it to?

At least on this site, it sounds like any startup would be preferred to any established company including google. Although that really does seem to be mostly the tone of this site.
