Bringing Down Google
Scott Isaacs over at Microsoft has hit upon a plan to bring down Google.
For a novelty, I decided to order a Google license plate frame 2 from the Google store. The frame costs $1.20 shipped to your door. At first I felt guilty buying a product from Google. Imagine my delight when I saw my $1.20 frame cost google $2.67 to ship. That is a loss, ignoring overhead and product costs, of at least $1.47 a unit! Then I realized, I found the solution to all our Google competitive woes.
Last quarter, Google made $1.578 billion dollars in revenue and earned $381 million dollars. Now, we want Google to lose money so let’s do a little quick math. $381,000,000/1.47 = 259,183,674 license plate frames need to be purchased. So, I figure for a mere $311,020,408, you could have pushed Google into the red last quarter.
Though one does have to wonder why an MSN architect (and one of the inventors of DHTML) is buying a Google license plate frame. ;-)
