Google does a pretty good job of having it's finger on the pulse, and if they're not planning to open up their console, I'm sure they have something else planned.

I really think the problem is the analogy in the title isn't really used correctly and then, like the many others point out, a real struggle with coherency. But it certainly was a fun ride!

Your senses are energetic and viciously contesting the awkward habit of exposing the truth. If only there were truth. The basic laws of spacial matter would only suggest the natural tendency to acknowledge the presence of something so righteous. How is this venture into an abstract passion subject to extreme scrutiny when the truly legitimate purpose of evaluation is discarded with earnest doubt? My judgment is reluctantly manipulated to gradually wrap such torment with potentially graceful cause. A purple opening rests beneath the dreary chamber.

Paragraph #1: Steve is introducing the topic that he's going to drop in the next paragraph. He thought it would be cool to talk about cloud vendor strategies. He's setting you up now to expect a linear discussion of the differences these vendors have. You're hooked, so, its off to the races.... Paragraph #2: Nosedive! Steve wants to talk about Google now. He's trying to say that Google is not open in its cloud framework, that all of its potential power is inwardly focused. Alas, its more fun to NOT say that directly and keep ya guessin'! Time for a new direction in the article, so Steve starts a new paragraph Paragraph #3: So little time, so many crazy-ass concepts to cram into a small blogpost! Steve is using what psychologists call "word salad" to list the names of many vendors. The one linear insight that manages to struggle to the surface is the echo of the Google concept he didn't touch in Paragraph #2, which is that it is not open... Yes, he already said that. Paragraph #4: Firefox 3 is a browser that Steve uses. Enjoy some random facts about it. Paragraph #5: This is a complex, deep paragraph. NOT! Gotcha! Steve is creating a techno koan. Don't worry, there is no wrong answer. By using words he used in other paragraphs, you might be fooled into thinking there is a developing argument here. Just keep movin'... Its a test. Paragraph #6: Google is closed. Same idea as in its prior mentions. No new development of theme. He knows you're not reading this far, so its not critical now. Paragraph #7: This is a classic Gillmore paragraph. If you tried to whiteboard it, your head would explode. There is literally no way you can make sense of it because its not meant to be read. It feels good to write though, so that's what's happening here. The clue is when he poses the hypothetical... you know he's gone. Paragraph #8 and #9: Steve will want to end by introducing new terms and concepts that only existed at the headline level. That's critical to obscuring the communication to the reader. These paragraphs are not important, except for the skimming reader who might be looking for the conclusion... Gotcha again! There isn't one! It’s okay everyone, I speak Gillmorese!
