hey i can't wait to use my android phone (just powered up by the google solar initiative!) to
connect to my local google free wifi so i can talk to my opensocial friends about posting new
crap to google knol (that pop culture reference might be harder to place - it was the
insanely-hyped-for-eight-hours "wikipedia killer")

why does google get a free pass on so much vaporware?

Not so fast

Because they have delivered a lot of crazy stuff that everyone else thought was impossible to do. If they only deliver 1/2 of what they announce it is still not a bad ratio.
