Jamey Wood announced that his company allowed him to release his project to the public. As I looked at slynkr, I also realized this article telling you something about how Google works. If I look at the last entries in this blog, it seems, I would look at articles of this company, but I can assure it isn’t as this. I admit, I like a couple of things about what I read about them, but I’ll write about this in the future.

Karel Baloun’s first book is a short journey about his days at facebook. He further (honestly) presents some thoughts about entrepreneurial ownership. I liked skimming through it

economictimes.indiatimes has a nice abstract called “Ten things you didn’t know about Google”

1. The name Google is a spelling error. They were going for ‘Googol.’ Googol is the mathematical term for 1 followed by 100 zeros.
2. The reason the google page is so bare is because the founder didn’t know HTML and just wanted a quick interface.
3. The basis of Google’s search technology is called PageRank that assigns an “importance” value to each page on the web and gives it a rank to determine how useful it is. However, that is not why it is called PageRank. It is actually named after Google co-founder Larry Page.
4. Google receives about 20 million search queries each day from every part of the world, including Antarctica and Vatican.
   
5. In the earliest stage of Google, there was no submit button, rather the Enter key needed to be pressed.
   
6. The Google’s free web mail service Gmail was used internally for nearly two years prior to launch to the public. The researchers found out six types of email users, and Gmail has been designed to accommodate these six.
   
7. It would take 5,707 years for a person to search Google’s 3 billion pages. The Google software does it in 0.5 seconds.
   
8. The logos that appear on the Google homepage during noteworthy days and dates and important events are called Google Doodle.
9. Google Moon, which maps the Lunar surfacesimilar to Google Earth is an extension of Google Maps and Google Earth that, courtesy of NASA imagery, enables you to surf the Moon’s surface and check out the exact spots that the Apollo astronauts made their landings .
10. Keyhole, the satellite imaging company that Google acquired in October 2004 was funded by CIA and runs Google’s popular program Google Earth.

Even I can’t see how they did their selection, the subtitle states the complete web 2.0 directory. Personal I would rate it more as a making ad money with a trendy name.
