@sample32:

If I were Brin and being the secret best man meant that the brouhaha of the Necker Island event simply resulted in even more inane publicity for the company totally unrelated to performance, I'm not so sure I'd complain.

GOOG closed at $715, right?

What is the context of the image? is it related to Larry's wedding or from another event.

@cv: A showma, he may be, but if you were, say, Brin, how would feel about being the secret best man?

It's like getting promoted to Assistant Regional Manager, only with the same pay, same desk, same duties, and no one knows.

I wouldn't be surprised if there was a small civil ceremony where someone else was the best man and that Branson's role in this event is mostly for entertainment purposes. The guy's a showman.

Heck, for all we know, Larry and Lucy might already be legally married.
