Google Options Make Masseuse a Multimillionaire - New York Times

Tue, 13 Nov 2007 11:28:49 -0000

Bonnie Brown was fresh from a nasty divorce in 1999, living with her sister and uncertain of her future. On a lark, she answered an ad for an in-house masseuse at Google, then a Silicon Valley start-up with 40 employees. She was offered the part-time job, which started out at $450 a week but included a pile of Google stock options that she figured might never be worth a penny.

Fri, 19 Oct 2007 01:02:39 -0000

Highlights and Sticky Notes:

"So, cruising around the early reviews of Google Video—mainly from people who tend to be Google supporters—suggests something has gone horribly, horribly wrong."

Official Google Blog: Do you "Google?"

Thu, 26 Oct 2006 04:51:28 -0000

Highlights and Sticky Notes:

Usage: 'Google' as noun referring to, well, us.
Example: "I just love Google, they're soooo cute and cuddly and adorable and awesome!"
Our lawyers say: Good. Very, very good. There's no question here that you're referring to Google Inc. as a company. Use it widely, and hey, tell a friend.

Usage: 'Google' as verb referring to searching for information on, um, Google.
Example: "I googled him on the well-known website Google.com and he seems pretty interesting."
Our lawyers say: Well, we're happy at least that it's clear you mean searching on Google.com. As our friends at Merriam-Webster note, to "Google" means "to use the Google search engine to find information about (as a person) on the World Wide Web."

Usage: 'Google' as verb referring to searching for information via any conduit other than Google.
Example: "I googled him on Yahoo and he seems pretty interesting."
Our lawyers say: Bad. Very, very bad. You can only "Google" on the Google search engine. If you absolutely must use one of our competitors, please feel free to "search" on Yahoo or any other search engine.

Nice implementation. Not really impressive though, considering that Kiko and 30Boxes are doing everything right in that sector already. Integration with GMail, and it would be a totally different ballgame. posted by gibarian
