- Google thinks it’s ok to go and scan books without asking publishers first, and only removing them when publishers complain.
- Google thinks it’s ok to scrape spider, cache, and archive your content and wrap their advertising around it whether you want them to or not.
- Google’s mission statement is … “Google’s mission is to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful”
I know sometimes when we get PHD’s invovled sometimes it gets a little hard for them to grasp, so I’ll make it easy for them to understand
If you’ve presented it at a conference it isn’t a big corporate secret, and if your mission statement is making information universally accessible then you need to make it available online … for everyone …
