Not very useful commentary. All they are saying is that like Wal-Mart, Google is big, which they have done by offering things people want.
A much better comparison to Wal-Mart is Amazon, which at least is in a similar industry, engages with a similarly complex supply chain, and has a far more analogous business model.
