hmm, I think that describes something different. &quot;the world&#x27;s most indispensable company&quot;. google isn&#x27;t that. not sure what is. maybe the big oil companies (collectively) are indispensable? that&#x27;s kind of a shame really. no company should be indispensable.<p>to me though, google is clearly important, in a historical sense. they are building things that change the world. they also seem to care (at least pay lip service) to trying to change the world in a way that is a net positive for most people.
