Bound to happen sooner or later, isn't it? Google was itself an upstart when they started, and look where they are today. Apart from the early lead they set in the search game (by way of quality and speed), most of their other products do not really have any USP, so to speak (from the ground up, I mean). Google's corporate motto certainly helped them come a long way.

Not just Google, these startups are schooling Microsoft and Yahoo along with AOL as well.
