Google and the Eternal Life Fantasy

After revealing the secret of MySpace, let's examine Google.

Wall Street worships Google like it worships money. It's been suggested that people worship money because they no longer believe in their immortality and money seems to last forever. It seems like the Internet will last forever. Long after we're gone, it seems like everything we've done here will remain and just as we've gotten a sense of the permanence of the Internet, Google has come to represent it. Even the name Google is similar to googol, a number that is forever.

Google's technology is good, but it's not a big deal. It's not what merits our attention. If Google is heaven, is there a hell?
