Shortcut:

Google Inc. (NASDAQGOOG) is an American multinational Internet and software corporation specialized in Internet search,cloud computing, and advertising technologies. It hosts and develops a number of Internet-based services and products. The company was founded by Larry Page and Sergey Brin while the two were attending Stanford University as Ph.D. candidates.

Google was first incorporated as a privately held company on September 4, 1998, and its initial public offering followed on August 19, 2004. At that time Larry Page, Sergey Brin, and Eric Schmidt agreed to work together at Google for 20 years, until the year 2024. The company's mission statement from the outset was "to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful", and the company's unofficial slogan – coined by Google engineer Amit Patel and supported by Paul Buchheit – is "Don't be evil". In 2006, the company moved to its current headquarters in Mountain View, California.

Google's rapid growth since its incorporation has triggered a chain of products, acquisitions, and partnerships beyond the company's core web search engine. The company offers online productivity software, such as the Gmail email service, the Google Docs office suite, and the Google+social networking service. Google's products extend to the desktop as well, with applications such as the Google Chrome web browser, thePicasa photo organizing and editing software, and the Google Talk instant messaging application. Google leads the development of the Androidmobile operating system, as well as the Google Chrome OS browser-only operating system, found on specialized laptops called Chromebooks.

Google Books (previously known asGoogle Book Search and Google Print) is a service from Google Inc. that searches the full text of books and magazines that Google has scanned, converted to text using optical character recognition, and stored in its digital database. Books are provided either by publishers and authors, through the Google Books Partner Program, or by Google's library partners, through the Library Project. Additionally, Google has partnered with a number of magazine publishers to digitize their archives.

The Google Books initiative has been hailed for its potential to offer unprecedented access to what may become the largest online body of human knowledge and promoting the democratization of knowledge. However, it has also been criticized for potential copyright violations, and lack of editing to correct the thousands of errors introduced into the scanned texts by the OCR process.

Is there value to the users? If you bring value to the users, I think we will succeed in the long run. Some things make more money than others, but as long as we keep bringing value to the world, we will be successful.

VISION

to the end of drawing up a comprehensive list of all it's applications, products, services and web pages. determining around four categories by possible usage and or functionality. as reference in an outliner type view.

- sometimes not ALL info displayed on any page is needed [for simplistic purposes]. maybe clarity, understanding, overview, definition or what is - is the purpose of a particular visit to W.

- it would be nice to collect notes on anything looked up especially if these notes can be collected and added to in timeline. these notes | editing & books are intended for this purpose. maybe then after a long term collection of notes - inputs can be made into W

CONCLUSION

it would be silly chopping up somebody else's work blindly and thinking you just collecting notes while their content is altered in so doing.
