This is an aggravation. My first impulse was to compare Google with Microsoft, until I remembered that GMail is still in beta. But when is this beta going to end? With the number of invitations I have lying around (if you're the last person on earth without an account, please feel free to write and ask for one), it's practically live already, so there can't be much benefit to taking it into general release. Was the strategy 1) to fly below radar after the controversy surrounding the "invasive" relevant ads, 2) to generate public interest/mystery at the moment of the IPO, or 3) something along the lines of don't be evil?
Also, if you're interested in working for Google, you should check out the Google Labs Aptitude Test. [via The Modulator]
