    Google's seven-year itch - By Juan Carlos Perez, IDG, PC World
    Another loud controversy Google found itself in was its dismissal early this year of an employee, Mark Jen, who said his blog postings about the company were the reason, or at least a key reason, for his firing.

    Google, which never commented on Jen's dismissal, got a lot of heat for what appeared to be a very negative attitude toward employees blogging publicly, and over the irony that the company owns Blogger.
