Chapters and Important People

Until the execs start allowing some of the really good engineers and PMs to move from Search to android and chrom, our offerings here will be sub-par. One of the reasons why Android has so many flakey edges is that Search monopolizes like 99% of the talent. And to be quite honest, within Google Search is the only place to get really noticed by the insiders. That might be changing with And1#id&o82r7;s new prominence, but it’s still mostly a backwater.
