I'm desperately trying to think of a way that will make this not sound like I'm hating on you, but there are other smart people in this world. While I respect PG immeasurably I really do hope HN hasn't gotten to a point where we can think enough to put into words that the CEO of one of the biggest web corporations has essentially based their new strategic plan off of the back of one of PG's essays!

I mean come on, MM has plenty of her own credentials, she was in at the ground floor of one of the greatest businesses of our generation (arguably) learning from her experiences and the people around her for over 10 years at what must have been one of the greatest rides.

But you know what, you might well be entirely correct, it just took me by surprise that the top comment wasn't about how great this new strategy of Yahoo's is (which I immediately thought) and how they're possibly starting to step into a new spotlight... but was instead about how the blueprint for this multi-billion dollar corporations new master plan was one of PG's essays.

I mean, don't get me wrong... I think the cult of PG would be a great one, we could get futuristic robes and .../sarcasm

Like I say, no hate intended. This is the top comment, someone had to say it
