Google opens up a little on its search algorithms
,----[ Quote ]
| Given the scrutiny it faces in the market as the dominant search provider,
| Google may be feeling a need to make a greater effort to be more transparent,
| said Greg Sterling, an analyst at Sterling Market Intelligence.

The article spends far too much time quoting Rob Enderle's attack on Google.
That's the guy who's attending cocktail parties in Redmond, as recently
reported by Perlow. It's a client.
Microsoft is afraid of Google for the same reasons it's afraid of IBM (at least
in part). Google is a Linux enabler.
Google carves an Android path through open-source world

| Google didn't invent open-source programming or pioneer the mobile-phone
| software market, but when it comes to its Android project, don't accuse
| Google of playing follow the leader.

Microsoft is still on this crusade to characterise Google as evil
(daemonisation). This tactic has gone on -- and noted -- since 2006 at the
earliest.

| Subject: Getting the word out about DR DOS
| Cc: kathrynh; russw
| Date: Mon Oct 15 12:09:08 1990
|
| Concerns have been raised that DR-DOS incompatibilities and flaws are
| being overlooked by reviewers.
|
| ..
|
| We recommend that we informally plant the bug of FUD in their ears.
| "Have you heard about problems with DR DOS?"
|
| "That security feature is a neat idea and, gosh, such a feature would be
| great, but it's just too easily circumvented"
|
| "Gee, it's unfortunate that DR DOS can't be loaded high all the time.
| MS-DOS 5.0 can" We'll do this very tactfully.
|
| ..
|
| The security features may lead someone to a false sense of security and
| someone may break into their payroll.
|
| ..
|
| * If Digital Research can to Microsoft for help in making DR DOS work
| with Windows, would Microsoft help them? Maybe not?
