Google May Be Baiting Microsoft Bing as It Opens Up on SearchGoogle basically gave BusinessWeek bureau chief Rob Hof the keys to its search kingdom at the GooglePlex for a series of interviews with the company's top search masterminds.

New Google Book: 'Inside Larry and Sergey's Brain'"Inside Larry and Sergey's Brain" is the first book on Google that I've read since Randall Stross' "Planet Google" in 2008.

Google Book Search Dominates This Week in Google ChatterThis past Saturday, I participated on This Week in Google, a Netcast hosted by Twit TV founder Leo Laporte and hosts/bloggers Jeff Jarvis and Gina Trapani. Most of the talk time was devoted to the Google Book Search deal, which of course dominates the news these days. This is going to take some time to suss out. Google and the authors and publishers will have to make changes, agree on them, then resubmit their settlement proposal to the New York court, only to bear the scrutiny all over again. |
