You laugh, but you should be respecting the engineering vision and guts it took do the Right Thing; dropping the kludgy "industry standards" and aspiring to the Ideal, instead of running yet another ASP/Java/PHP/Oracle farm like all their peers.

Again, I'm not laughing at their architecture. I'm taking a step back and looking at the big picture of what happened and just found it amusing.

Google has great engineering vision and they're generally a great company in the way they handle things. No questions there.
