It might be nice to update the title with (2011).

In August of 2011, I was just about to go start working for Google, not yet having learned the lesson laid out in this article.

The title is misspelled, should be “won't”. Even better, just change it to the actual title, “Why I'd never work for Google, Twitter, or Facebook”.

(Wont is a word in English, but it's not what's meant here.)
