Larry Page hates e-mail, but still has 'geek street cred' - CNET News

"But meetings now are only 50 minutes long, because Page decreed that there must be time for bathroom breaks between them."<p>Kudos to Larry.<p>Why is this not best practice everywhere? I've had to pad my schedule in some organizations to prevent back-to-back meetings because the campus spanned several buildings and transit time itself between meetings added 5-10min, leave alone bathroom breaks or even updating documentation/deliverables.

That all makes sense to me. I think he's taking Google where it needs to go, even if not all the employees want to go there.<p>But then, no matter what decision was made, there would be people who disliked it... There are just far too many employees for that not to happen.
