I really have to disagree with you here.

    Digg failed

Yes, it did. It had been starting to fail for some time though, and they tried to reinvent it. It didn't work. It was mismanaged, but you see this thing all the time. Hell, Microsoft is doing it with Windows 8 right now. It's hard to know how something will go until you try it.

    He went to form milk, that failed and he took money from people.

Milk was acquired my Google, how is that "failing"?

    Oink failed.

Oink did well but not well enough. The initial plan was to "fail quickly", and they did.

    He got acquired to work on G+, very quickly after got booted to Google Ventures - and apparently didn't do too well there.

I don't know anything about this, so I will not comment. But as far as I know Kevin is still doing just fine at Google Ventures. Why do you use the term "got booted"?

I mostly take issue with your post because of the overtly negative tone, and not providing a single source for your claims. I used to see Kevin as a bit of a schmuck, but I think he's turned into somebody to watch now rather than somebody who just got lucky. He picks companies well, and I think he's in the perfect spot right now.
