  7. Google advertising itself on search results on Aussies Sue Over Misleading Google Ads · · Score: 1

    I am running an add on google.pl targeting the word blog. The first two ads are for blogger, a service owned by google. While the disclaimer states - sponsored links - I guess google is not paying itself. Or is it? So it is just a way of moving their own service to the top of the search results.

  9. Re:Spoken Like a True Self-Deluded CEO on Microsoft CEO Claims iPhone Will Be Bust · · Score: 1

    I found this interview quite interesting. I agree that at $500 and subsidized (by AT&T - you have to commit for two years) iPhone is expensive. Remember why in '80 DOS powered PCs took over the personal computer market from Apple? They were much cheaper... As a side note, did you notice that he said that new operating system is less than 4 years away. Maybe Vista is some kind of Zune that is released to gather more feedback from the market before releasing more successful version 2.0 (or 360). P PS. I own two Macs.

  10. Re:The winners are never the best. on Bad Security Driving Out the Good · · Score: 1

    Diamond market is actually a perfect example of asymmetric market where uninformed buyers are paying something like 10 times more than the good is really worth. The market for diamonds is artificially inflated by cartel.

    If you don't believe try selling your precious diamond (not exchanging it for another). You will be happy to get 50% of what you paid for it, what by the way is still a great deal considering what it cost to produce the diamonds.

    This is a very good story about the diamond industry. http://www.theatlantic.com/doc/198202/diamond/ Please note that this is a link to a newspaper and not any academic source. Still it is a very good read.

    If you prefer academic resources Google for Central Selling Organization. You will find plenty of articles and HBS cases.

  12. Information Rules on The Information Revolution · · Score: 1

    There is a great book "information Rules: A Strategic Guide to the Network Economy" by Carl Shapiro, Hal R. Varian that was published in 1998. Check it out. It is really amazing.

  13. Re:Can we trust Time magazine on Can We Trust Google? · · Score: 1

    You see the legal info only when you search for the article in Google. When you search Time archive (registeread as a subscriber) you see the following:

    __ No documents found for Why We Didn't Remove Saddam. Try searching TIME.com with Google. __

    So for subscribers the document does not exist. Unless they go to google...

    The most disturbing is the fact that when you browse the Time archive and look at the issue in question, 2 March 1998, there is no track of the article.

    So to answer the question in the topic, yes it looks like we CAN trust google.
