Google and AltaVista
December 5, 2018
I read “The Friendship That Made Google Huge.” Interesting. I would like to ask,
Why isn’t AltaVista’s contribution to Google search put front and center?
And

Google was “clever”, and the company surfed on the missteps of Hewlett Packard. Google also borrowed some inspiration from GoTo-Overture-Yahoo. In short, Google’s story is more nuanced than some retellings of history suggest.
