Why Google Rocks And An IPO

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the i-luv-my-google dept.

Soothsayer wrote to us about the recent BusinessWeek article that profiles Google, its rise to the top, despite no marketing dollars, and tries to explain...well...why Google rocks. Oh, and some small mention of an IPO. CT I also want to note that images.google.com is my favorite place in the universe to idly explore the wierdness of the net.

    It's a shame that other sites don't accomodate those of us that speak sweedish chef.

    That's why google is on top.

    I did a search on AltaVista which returned 10,000,000 results. I'll let you know when I find it.

    From the article:
    With the addition of Arabic and Hebrew, Google now spits out results in 66 languages.
    I wonder if that count includes swedish chef?
