Google Timeline Ignores 2006 Pivot Point
October 26, 2009
PC World (New Zealand) ran a story that sucked me to it. “Eleven Years of Google: A Look Back” exemplifies the problems pundits, mavens, and authorities have when making sense of what Google did and has become. The principal flaw in the article is that each set of examples is like an earthworm segment. None is differentiated to the sophomore biology student. the year 2006 is an important one in the short history of Google. But PC World points out that Google bought YouTube.com and ignores an acquisition and key hire that have had considerable impact on the products that Google offers today. Google’s PR team must be delighted with the superficial understanding of the company despite the many words written to explain Google.
