Google has hired about six new employees, including someone who was a lead developer of Avalon, Microsoft's next-generation interface system.

I didn't know that new employees at Google were called Nooglers. Funny.

Ahhh the intrigue.... Perhaps Google is planning to take over the world?

Congratulations Joe. How far you've come from your lowly MS Team Manager internship days! Good luck.

Does the hat have "Noogler" written on it? Can you post a photo?
Ido Kenan | Email | Homepage | 09.20.04 - 11:04 pm | #

Yeah -- it does say "Noogler" on it. I'll try to post a picture of me wearing it. I'm pretty sure my wife would want to put that on our christmas cards

"Nooglers" isn't so bad.

People who work for Vaspers the Grate are called "vasperizers" and it scares people half to death.

We "vasperized" Martha Stewart here:

Anyway, so far, I'm a devoted, maybe fanatic Google advocate. I can't wait to see what's coming next, now they have so much money and fame and smart ones like you, Joe.

Do your best, we're counting on it.

Piet Harms | Email | Homepage | 09.22.04 - 3:07 am | #

oh no, another browser to be worried about (about compatibility) Sad
anyway, have a great time there at google, in a way, i am a colleage btw (Adsense hehe)
Bert | Email | Homepage | 09.22.04 - 5:49 am | #

Good luck son,since you developed Internet Explorer.
It's good to have a Trojan Horse (also say hello to the other 3 Microsoft employees who went along with you ) inside Google to develop a browser as leak as Internet Explorer.
Bill | Email | Homepage | 09.22.04 - 6:10 am | #

Why aren't you guys working on something that contributes more to the internet development, instead of trying to improve something that already is briljant.

Google is really a improvement for internet and maybe you can do the same as you did for searchengines, but making a new zip program that resizes files with much greater numbers sounds better doesn't it?

cheers joe, have fun there

Joe,

Great ! I wonder whether you left Microsoft because of the fact that Avalon should be compatible with XP as well (resulting in a non-perfect world - which, I guess, was the whole point behind Avalon) ?

Anyway success and I hope you manage to combine html & smart clients in such a way that it finally becomes possible to build great looking apps that are Internet compatible in no time.

Brgds,
Tom

Tom,

I most definitely did *not* leave MS because of the Avalon on XP plan. I really really like that plan. One of the interpretations of the name of this site is that "80% is sometimes good enough." Overarchitecting and trying to build perfection never works out -- you just spend time playing with code.

Good luck making any friends while wearing that hat.
