When The Internet Publicity Began, I Remember

The Core Problem Is That The World Is Full Of People Who Would Like To Take 99 Per Cent Of The Information That's On The Internet, And Eliminate 1 Per Cent. Everyone Has Their Own Thing They Don't Like.

There Were 5 Exabytes Of Information Created Between The Dawn Of Civilization Through 2003, But That Much Information Is Now Created Every 2 Days.

I Had Always Assumed That The Right Way To Do It Was To These Engineers, Put Them In Offices By Themselves With Doors That They Could Close So They Could Think Deep Thoughts. This Is A Terrible Idea.

I Worry That The Level Of Interrupt, The Sort Of Overwhelming Rapidity Of Information — And Especially Of Stressful Information — Is In Fact Affecting Cognition. It Is In Fact Affecting Deeper Thinking. I Still Believe That Sitting Down And Reading A Book Is The Best Way To Really Learn Something.
 And I Worry That We’re Losing That.

I Actually Think Most People Don't Want Google To Answer Their Questions. They Want Google To Tell Them What They Should Be Doing Next.
