In terms of Internet-driven companies, Google is the living breathing definition of the success attained through hard work and innovation. The company, originally formed as part of a side-project on the part of a few eager college students on a mission to index the Internet, has managed to become a large-scale enterprise that is just as profitable as it is influential.
For years now this influence and profit has been entirely evident in Google’s noteworthy road to success. The company has done very well for itself by expanding beyond its original search engine foundation, and has (for the most part) done well with newer services such as Gmail and Google Apps; services that have been a wild success amongst individuals and businesses of all sizes alike. However, more recent news has shed a critical light on Google’s success after the company failed to meet profit expectations in their last quarterly posting. But even though this news doesn’t seem to have set very well with some investors that have opted to side with caution after the news came out earlier this week, I honestly am not buying into the fear of Google’s failure.
