How could one rank Google in terms of the world's largest Advertising firms? Ad. Age lists Dentsu as being the world's largest ad. firm, but Google's earnings (mainly from Ad sales) are 5 times higher, (10.6 billion in 2006,) yet it is not classified as an ad agency...could anyone help?

Thank you.

Hey, John,

I’m wondering if maybe you could change the indivdual comment link texts in the left-hand column — now they read “go”, but perhaps you could have it coded such that each link text would be the post number (e.g. 4001, 4002, 4004, 0087, etc.

That would be neat-o — I bet pretty soon we’d start naming threads by their sequential numbers….

Congrats!! Loved the book and look forward to a sequel… The Database of Intentions continued (maybe one chapter per on-Island session?)? Crazy to think what a difference four years make in the digital age.

Congratulations. A long time ago, you taught me how to deal with mudsharks. I have been keeping an eye on your career ever since. Is it true that success is best when it’s hard won?

One of my goals over the next few years is to make sure you don’t have time to write on this site.

It’s been a pleasure!
