Google's Chef Speaks, but Not Its Finance Officer

New York Times:

Google summoned financial analysts to its headquarters in Mountain View, Calif., yesterday for its first major presentation since its public offering last August. But in four hours of speeches, company executives barely touched on the company's finances.

"They had a formal presentation by their chef but not their chief financial officer," said Mark S. Mahaney, an analyst with American Technology Research. "I have never been to an investor day where the C.F.O. didn't speak."

I hate Google. Granted, I know more about Google than most of the people that seem to love the company for some reason, but this story represents everything that's wrong with the company. Yeah, we get it, you're different. But you're also ridiculous. You can be different and excellent, like Apple. Google is no Apple.
