Introduction

This blog is based off of Robin Sloan's EPIC 2015, an awe-inspiring presentation about the future of data and news. The key company is Google - with its extensive organizing technologies which supposedly will someday allow access to an unimaginable amount of concievable information. (EPIC 2015 is © Robin Sloan. Used with permission.)

I haven't updated this blog a lot, because of dwindling traffic. However, I'm slowly reviving it.

Google's mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful.

Google's 7th Birthday - The gift? A larger index

Tuesday, September 27, 2005

Google's 7th birthday is today! It opened its door in September 1998, and now has a search index 1,000 times larger than before. This makes Google's index 3x larger than any other search engine.

Google's come a long way since Backrub started in a garage as a school project... Google deserves much more credit than they've been given. You can read their blog entry here.
