Eric Schmidt Was Google’s #2 Choice. Guess Who Was #1…

steve-jobsThat’s right, folks. Let us pause for a moment to consider what may have been.

Turns out, in a documentary called “Game Changers” by Bloomberg TV, Sergey Brin and Larry Page originally wanted our favorite anti-CEO Steve Jobs to run Google but he was too busy running some other fruit picking company to come over to the light side. So Brin and Page had to “settle” for Eric Schmidt, who eventually won their hearts thanks to his presence at the annual Burning Man festival. What kind of Neo-bullet-dodging trick did those two pull off?

You can watch the full documentery over at Bloomberg.
