Yes, but this all reminds me of the "Xerox invented the GUI" stuff. It's not sure it makes who invents what, it matters who can go to market with it.

Google has been treading water for years, living off stuff they already made and people depend on. When they stop depending on it and/or it gets regulated out of existence, they're screwed.

That is a fair analogy, but my comment was in response to the claim Google was trying to catch rather than innovating, which I thought was weird since innovation isn't Google's problem, execution and strategy are.
