Long-term plans for world domination of Google.

This week, Google (GOOG) announced Google Chrome for OS PC as well as people are still confused about what Google. Pandian says that innovation is not a party to the case of Google, as part of a long-standing dominance of the Google web.

Long-term strategy of the case or innovation?

Google is proud of its 20 percent rate. Employees may spend 20 percent of his time to his personal projects because these projects - a measure or another - in connection with Google's current or future activities.

Google can win only on the basis of this decision and their employees more than 100 percent in each case. Many new thinking in the 20 percent then to testing in Google Labs, and some are permanent members of the Google family.

These people think that Google is a company focused on innovation optimistic, confident strong serendipovyh: Give employees the freedom and time, and they will be something useful to the end.

This story fits well Page and Brin academic background. Google PageRank algorithm was, after all, was born with curiosity at the research universities.

This story was a smoke screen that the real strategy of Google, it's possible, and the very long term plans for permanent position in Google. This plan, which would (if it works) to ensure that Yahoo! Bingo and Microsoft is still behind, even after ten to twenty years.


Planning long-term

No, we do not have access to Google's secret archives. The ability to think, has a long term for everyone.

Here is an example:

Pandian filed in 2001 in the innovation from Google called Google Catalogs.

He does not make much impression at the moment. Google crawling and indexing Catalogs U.S. mail, you can search according to their content in the Google search engine.

It has no meaning for us today. We assume that they can think about future income.

Was not. Google Catalogs, and became a popular tool for searching and probably never will (it was closed in January).

Index of all printed materials in the world

The real reason for this is to develop technology that allows you to scan many publications and put their content in the text.

Google was in 2001 plans for Google Web search company to search for content companies. Google is less than the original direction of the search for all types of content, including all texts that were never printed.

This may sound like madness, as we know, but thanks to Google Catalog experiment, Google could develop technology that can scan a large number of books in a very short time.

In 2004 we reported that the company plans to scan books that are among the libraries of Harvard, Stanford, University of Michigan, University of Oxford and the New York Public Library. Since the number of libraries has increased dramatically, and Google has a difficult operation with publishers, relating to copyright.

Although Google Books will not (yet) give you the entire contents of books that are not publicly available, Google your patience, you can use Google Books for the book you want to buy a paper or a file.
