Google Cofounders Larry Page And Sergy Brin Are Pretty Lousy Coders

This is nothing particularly new to me, and neither is this the first time that the leader of a large tech company was made known not to code very well (think Mark Zuckerberg http://www.businessinsider.com/mark-zuckerbergs-coding-skill...). Honestly, I wouldn't expect them to be incredible coders. Building a company like Google doesn't take (just) coding skills.

While it is important to have good coders on board, building a company takes ideas, execution, and luck. Coding is an important, but slightly overemphasized part of it.

According to Steve Wozniak, Steve Jobs never coded a line. Coding is not what makes these men great.
