If Nest is $250 this creates a market opportunity for a $500 thermostat that doesn't show you ads

nah they're just offering up dumb ideas to not have to disclose their mobile revenue but hopefully the SEC will call them on their poo poo. once investors can see clearly that google is getting dumpstered by facebook and tech bloggers can point to it every quarter a virtuous cycle of negative news will take hold and accelerate the death of google. "google has 60 days to release the self-driving car or they'll disppear" if google's business plan for nest is really to show ads on the thermostat then lmao

Your eyes roll over to the right to look at the screen, and the rest of the world goes out of focus. People can't make eye contact with you, and if they're versed in popular psychology, they read things into your lack of eye contact. maybe its because youre using your stupid eyeglasses smartphone instead of actually paying attention to them??
