They are also starting to look like Microsoft (big, cumbersome, arrogant and soon, bland) As for whether they really are spreading themselves too thin, hard to say. I marvel at any company with more than two people that can stay together in a coherent way. :-) Maybe it’s just my desire to “not” be on the winning, big guys’ side but I started to really like Google in 2009 and then something snapped, and they are starting to annoy me.
