Here is the story behind one of the most remarkable Internet successes of our time. Based on scrupulous research and extraordinary access to Google, the book takes you inside the creation and growth of a company whose name is a favorite brand and a standard verb recognized around the world. Its stock is worth more than Disney's, McDonald's and General Motors' combined, its staff enjoys free meals inspired by a former chef for the Grateful Dead, and its employees traverse the firm's colorful Silicon Valley campus on scooters and inline skates.
The Google Story is the definitive account of the populist media company powered by the world's most advanced technology that in a few short years has revolutionized access to information about everything for everybody everywhere.

While the company has done exactly that in more than one hundred languages, Google's quest continues as it seeks to add millions of books, videos, personal genetic records and more to its searchable database.
Readers will learn about the amazing business acumen and computer wizardry that started the company on its astonishing course; the secret network of computers delivering lightning-fast search results; the unorthodox approach that has enabled it to shake up Wall Street, scoop up YouTube, and challenge Microsoft's dominance at every turn. Not afraid of controversy, Google is looking to expand in Communist China and pursuing other projects that may come to test the founders' mantra: DON'T BE EVIL.

评分1,勾勒了两位老板布林和佩吉的大致轨迹 2,描绘了该公司的简历 3,内容客观较全面,能整顿下对GOOGLE公司的认识,从而学到很多东西
评分起码态度满朴实的,对比讲facebook的那本也太花俏,太biased了。 这么多年了,故事没有什么新颖的地方了,但是作者能refrain from wishfully attribute definitive "cause" to past events,个人觉得已经超过好多当今的流行书了。

评分说到web2.0,大家肯定会说Web2.0是以Flickr、43Things.com等网站为代表,以Blog、TAG、SNS、RSS、wiki等社会软件的应用为核心,依据六度分隔、xml、ajax等新理论和技术实现的互联网新一代模式。不过,说到现在web2.0的搜索网站是怎样的呢? 曾经对别人说过,我可...
