I just think it's funny that they probably wanted Sergey to pick a standard big company management title for the press release, like "President of Products" or similar. He went with "Co-Founder".
Any standard big-company management title other than "CEO" or "Chairman of the Board" is beneath CEO level.
"Co-founder" makes it clear what his position is: power without any official duties. Pretty sweet deal.
Yeah..that was my point...I'll stop talking about this now :-)
His first request was "Super Co-Founder"
I love the way Google functions in respect to top management
