This article is chock full of bad grammar. I've generally found NYTimes to be reputable, but this makes me question how hastily this was pushed out. Can anyone find another source corroborating this news?
Yeah - I noticed this too. It seems like they wanted to 'scoop' the story before Google announced it on their own blog perhaps? I'm not one to criticize another person's grammar or writing style, but it was unusually bad with this NY Times article.
