Estou muito apostado nos serviços e produtos google para expandir, criar e desenvolver trabalhos e projectos que até aqui não eram possíveis, por questões técnicas e tecnológicas. Antes de mais e para já, os meus sinceros agradecimentos e parabéns por toda a qualidade e volume de trabalho desenvolvido em prol do "novo mundo" e dos seus cidadãos.

저는 마이크로소프트 가 정말 하나님에 축복으로 이룬 기업인줄 알았 읍니다 시애틀에 살면서 이러케 치사한줄 알았으면 압으로 절대 쥬위시 (이스라엘백성) 절대 존경하지않을 것이며 하나님 또한 절대자라 믿지 못할것 갓읍니다 에전에는 열심히 일하느라 인터넷 사용이 적어 이러케 심각할줄 몰랐지요 참고로 저는 작년에 이곳 시에틀 워싱턴 하버뷰 병원에서 많은 스트래스로 인해 뇌수술 을 받았읍니다 요즘 일이 너무나 없어 컴퓨터 를 자주보는데 구글크롬만 클릭하면 구글싸이트는 전부 없어저 버림니다 단순히 바이러스인줄 알았는데 이 모든것이 마이크로소프트 에서 업데이트시킨

프로그램 때문인줄 알고 나니 정말 세상이 싫어젖 씁니다 만약 제가 다시 쓰러저 죽는 다면 일보다 마이크로소프트 프로그램 때문 일 것 심니다 참고로 새프로그램 을 컴퓨터에 까는 비용이 hp window7 home 프리미엄 산가격 보다 더많은 비용이 들었읍니다 열한번 째 프로그램을 깔았읍니다

I think this is a forwarding thinking and bold statement and I'd like to see more of them by other companies.

Creating jobs in new areas could be deemed as better than keeping jobs that are not desirable to society or people!

It's not a black and white thing, it's more a question of where jobs are being created and lost and impact on the health of society and the world as a whole!

Personally I'd like to see people with more free time and money so there weren't so many jobs!

This guy is claiming that on average, every $1 spent on adwords delivers $8 in revenue. If that were really the case, Google would have revenue in the trillions, because no one in their right mind would turn down the opportunity to turn $1 into $8. Even in the middle of the video, when he says $1 spent = $2 direct revenue on average is a total fabrication. Only brand advertisers that measure ROI in eyeballs view Adwords as a success.

[thefish2010]

Lol video is a complete fantasy. 99% of Adwords advertisers lose money.

Google and Microsoft are just hi-tech aristocracies. These same services would be provided by any other company had there not already been a monopoly. Those billionaires are a giant threat to democracy and future economic growth when they can privately control how people communicate. They should be treated as something other than a normal corporation.

@inetkillsradiostar In what way is Google a monopolist? You yourself stated that Yahoo and MSN had similar products.

[inetkillsradiostar]

I would put the question the other way round: What would be the impact if google did NOT exist:

1. Competitors like yahoo, msn would jump in place

2. Google is a monopolist, leading to the fact that a lot of smaller companies loos their means of existance due to economies of scales =>More unemployed people in the end.

3. The decline of f.e. the newspaperindustry is caused by companies like google. google just replaces them, but does not increase the economic impact in sum).

It create job, helps business, "generate billion $ of economic value"...and bring back millions to Google...Is this noble, or having a noble image is going to increase revenue?
