    When i first saw this, i was like going ‘Great! Someone is doing something serious to compete against Google!’. Boy was i disappointed. Don’t see why this plan will not work. Besides 1million is small change to them anyway.

    It is small change for them once, but how would it feel offering 1 million to each american? That wouldn’t be small change, for sure ;)
