书非借不能读也,终于在同学的催促下把《the search》看完了。在同学中我算是一个google fans了,不过比起真正的google fans差远了。 以前对google的一些技术和算法也有了解,这本书有了更全面的介绍,又是一个美国创业童话,stanford,博士毕业设计的成果,车库创...
评分 评分当电子商务,在线招聘等网站都把搜索技术作为突破点,《搜》这本书,以google为主角,解读了google的成功故事,同时也在信息技术趋势的大背景下,探讨搜索产业在技术与商业上发展的历程。Google远不是做搜索技术的第一家,为什么其它的要么成了先驱。作者写这本书,据称采访了...
评分 评分成功总是与太多的偶然结合在一起。 如果Stanford在Google占用了如此多带宽甚至使其网络瘫痪的情况下没有那么宽容,也许Google就只是用来使Page和Brin毕业的实验;如果Page和Brin奔走于硅谷一家又一家的演示Google的时候,有人出钱买下来,也许两个天才就没有办法像现在这样的能...

What does the world want? According to John Battelle, a company that answers that question -- in all its shades of meaning -- can unlock the most intractable riddles of both business and culture. And for the past few years, that's exactly what Google has been doing.
Jumping into the game long after Yahoo, Alta Vista, Excite, Lycos, and other pioneers, Google offered a radical new approach to search, redefined the idea of viral marketing, survived the dotcom crash, and pulled off the largest and most talked about initial public offering in the history of Silicon Valley.
But The Search offers much more than the inside story of Google's triumph. It's also a big-picture book about the past, present, and future of search technology, and the enormous impact it is starting to have on marketing, media, pop culture, dating, job hunting, international law, civil liberties, and just about every other sphere of human interest.
More than any of its rivals, Google has become the gateway to instant knowledge. Hundreds of millions of people use it to satisfy their wants, needs, fears, and obsessions, creating an enormous artifact that Battelle calls "the Database of Intentions." Somewhere in Google's archives, for instance, you can find the agonized research of a gay man with AIDS, the silent plotting of a would-be bombmaker, and the anxiety of a woman checking out her blind date. Combined with the databases of thousands of other search-driven businesses, large and small, it all adds up to a goldmine of information that powerful organizations (including the government) will want to get their hands on.
No one is better qualified to explain this entire phenomenon than Battelle, who cofounded Wired and founded The Industry Standard. Perhaps more than any other journalist, he has devoted his career to finding the holy grail of technology -- something as transformational as the Macintosh was in the mid- 1980s. And he has finally found it in search.
Battelle draws on more than 350 interviews with major players from Silicon Valley to Seattle to Wall Street, including Google cofounders Larry Page and Sergey Brin and CEO Eric Schmidt, as well as competitors like Louis Monier, who invented AltaVista, and Neil Moncrief, a soft-spoken Georgian whose business Google built, destroyed, and built again.
Battelle lucidly reveals how search technology actually works, explores the amazing power of targeted advertising, and reports on the frenzy of the Google IPO, when the company tried to rewrite the rules of Wall Street and declared "don't be evil" as its corporate motto.
For anyone who wants to understand how Google really succeeded -- and the implications of a world in which every click can be preserved forever -- THE SEARCH is an eye-opening and indispensable read.
