Product Description
Enhanced Digital Edition
Sergey Brin once described the Internet as “the repository of all our knowledge,” and the company he and Larry Page founded slightly more than a decade ago, Google, Inc., provides access to the Internet for a majority of the Western world. Google has altered the world we live in with a profound impact on just about everything we do. In addition to the search engine, Google has given us many other products including YouTube, Google Earth, GMail, Chrome and the Android operating system for cell phones. It is now difficult to remember a time when we didn't have Google, an essential tool in today's world of commerce, education, government and social interaction. The search engine they created delves through trillions of documents in a fraction of a second. According to Jonathan Zittrain of Harvard Law School it places Sergey Brin and Larry Page as “the traffic cop at the main intersection of the information society . . . . They have an awesome responsibility.” Award-winning author Daniel Alef tells the remarkable story of Sergey, Larry and Google in this CoreView biographical profile and discusses their responsibility as gatekeepers to the Internet. [11,446-word Titans of Fortune CoreView Biographical Profile with more than 50 carefully selected and embedded video links and links to supplementary material such as the initial SEC registration statement for Google's initial public offering]
