Today, July 8, 2008, is the big day when “Google Nemesis” “drops“. I like that term: “drops“. The first I heard it used was by Chris “Credit Card Killer” McNeeny. Oops, sorry! That should be Chris “Day Job Killer“. Just a little morbid humor from the wonderful world of IM and interestingly enough, “Google Nemesis” is from none other than Chris McNeeny.

As product launches go, this one seems to be relatively subdued compared to Chris’ previous ones such as “Day Job Killer“. Overall, I’ve noticed that a lot of the hype surrounding big launches has subsided. Hopefully, this is a trend that’s here to stay, but one thing that Chris hasn’t let up on is the power of his earnings’ persuasion.
