Google’s Conscience

1

It’s not news that Google is a gigantic conglomerate, whose decisions are financial first and foremost. However, this week marks a big change and a decision which was based on what’s right for mankind, and not money.

This week Google decided they will no longer censor their searches in China.  This decision was made as a result of the extremely invasive hacks they were subjected to this past December. At first, they thought it was one of the more common and annoying hackers just causing trouble. But after thorough investigation it was found that the Chinese government themselves was the culprit. They were secretly and illegally reading gmails of human rights activists in China to get information.

I was just talking about this last week on the show, and it looks like today is a big day for mobile advertising!

Google’s really getting serious about mobile advertising.  In November they purchased AdMob, a mobile display ad technology provider, for $750 million.  If you’ve seen skinny horizontal ads at the top of an iPhone app or game, those have most likely been AdMob’s doing.  In the past, AdMob has concentrated on mobile display ads, while Google has focused on search ads.

Google’s URL Shortener

Reply

Google finally gets their fingers into the URL shortener pie.

There are numerous companies who create URL shortener tools. These are tools that take a long url and shorten it so that it fits into a character-limited field like Twitter or a status field in one of your other social networks. They help ensure that your social network messages don’t get cut off, give you more space to say what you want to say, make it easier to forward, share, retweet, etc. without cutting off bits of the long url.
