That website makes them look way too evil, like the wal-mart of the internet:PEbaumsworld is evil, but Google? Naw! Creepy? No doubt!
Sure, they need to work around some stupid little things, like the ads that inappropriately match news articles, but I don't see any major problems with their services. Yes, they have ads in Gmail, I think it's pretty funny sometimes, specially when the ads match the email... example, some guy posted on another forum an email of his girlfriend breaking up with him (yes, i know, breaking up over email, crazy) and there were ads for online dating on the side. It's not like ads are put there by some guy working in a cubicle, it's all programmed.
