    Google Bitch #2: The Wispy Web Startup

    It's a brave new world, says Fortune Small Business as it moves to Google "victim" #2. This Google Bitch has a more valid complaint than Google Bitch #1. Mike Landis sells site analytics software that now competes with Google Analytics.

    Damn, don't you wish you got into Fortune every time you got a competitor? The magazine does a great job building Google as a bully, saying the company "makes no apologies for crushing small competitors."

    Of course, by "crushing," Fortune means "launching a product similar to, but clearly less finessed than, and with shakier tech support." Landis's company, Mach5, may be complaining; meanwhile, leading analytics company Sitemeter is doing just fine despite the competition.

    What did we learn from Google Bitch #2? If you can't take the heat, get out and stop bitchin'.
