Just finished reading Jeffrey Toobin’s article,”Google’s Moon Shot.” I received my New Yorker today but I notice the article’s been online since Wednesday.
It’s about Google’s project to scan all books into a database. I think this is a beautiful idea. Of course they are getting their ass sued off.
Just as YouTube had to bow to
Viacom recently. Sheesh. When
will these people quit looking at the
short term buck and figure out that
networking of interconnected
information and
art could be a cool future?
