I'm a Google employee. After looking at this demo I can tell you're spiritually a Googler in ways I can't quite articulate.

Well if people start using it and like it a lot, only for him to then suddenly delete the whole thing without warning... then he'd truly be a Googler.

This feels more like an internal tool that will be used forever

I’m sorry, but this comment reads as “culty” to me. Google has 180,000+ employees, of which tens of thousands must be engineers. What does “Googler” mean. Someone who is passionate, hacky, and creative?

If so, why do we need to slap a corporate label onto them? Can’t you just describe them as such?

I’m not trying to be cynical or rude, but this just feels wrong to me.

Every company has a corporate culture, including Google, and my comment has a heavy dose of self deprecation in it.
