title="CouchSurfing">CS</abbr>), and so far I stayed with three people (at two places) found via HC and CS. Both experiences were highly positive. Actually, my world outlook changed quite a bit after my first stay: I heard from someone that</p><blockquote><p>it&#8217;s better to trust wrong person once, than always distrust all the people</p></blockquote><p>But building trust, despite being central to HC ans CS, is only one &#8211; basic &#8211; component. Cultural exchange and knowledge sharing are also important, though so far I was unable to comprehend these components sufficiently to write on them.</p><p>At the CouchSurfing.com website, it appears to be popular to put some test/quiz results into profiles. These are the tests:<br

Are they leaving the web-portal market of Ukraine? Was the part of their team (which later formed MI6) too important to handle their exodus with no consequences? Is that just a desire to give customers &#8220;better&#8221; interface and not invest anything into development?</p><p>I hope this won&#8217;t be a trend, for every service to have Google behind their servers. Or even just behind the name, to avoid extra complexity of having a server.</p><p>Finally, I think I&#8217;ll get used. But it was only yesterday, that I read the Google anti-utopia, where <a
href="http://www.google-watch.org/bigbro.html">Big Brother</a>&#8216;s name is (evidently) Google, and it&#8217;s webcams and microphones and search history define each person&#8217;s future AND guilt.
