If you’re going to put up a blog saying negative things about your employer, it probably doesn’t help if that employer is one the world’s leaders in finding and retrieving information. Oh yea, and you’re using their software to do it.
Lots of talk going on at Threadwatch about Mark Jen, the Google employee who goes by the blog handle “NinetyNineZeroes” and the guy that some are saying is being silenced by the Google powers that be.

UPDATE: Mark Jen is back again. He said he’s sorry and can now come out of his room. Read about it here.
