September 7,, Google spokesman confirmed, Google China recently through the ICP licence yearly check, can continue to provide a year of service. To this, the industry thinks generally, Google through the ICP yearly check Google is expected to restart means Google. Cn domain, and the corresponding Chinese search services; At the same time also will accept China’s laws and regulations and domestic regulatory oversight. This period of news in my after finish, also proves before I have been doubts, Google actually still in Chinese this piece of market beat around the bush. In 2010, Google announced that after leaving China, frantically and a number of large space and a joint venture enterprise, time Google coupons the deluge of hurtling adsense market, although many of which there are many webmaster by sales of exorbitant profits, but how coupons as Google speaking, but the real for a group of faithful attracted webmaster, if one of the 10% of business owners continuous investment years of advertising, I think Google this investment also nothing, and Google at first, see those sales account suggests is sees with one eye closed and with one eye. And if you will Google positioning for a marketing hype, then the before from Google announced in May leave to leave period, countless media scramble to report, and during this time, Google’s flow, the first time even once rise slightly more than, after all the hype, baidu but help Google saved at least tens of millions of dollars in ads for nothing, to get investment the attention of a large number of customers. And if you stay focused on how and Google’s search words, you will find a change, because no matter how Google search or, they’re all in China to the policy, like some illegal near the site has been not Google’s search results, and Google’s related team also strengthened the the audit, as to how, is in supportively China policy, and some would have directly through advertising, some key words, Google will be the edge or directly to the long-term audit closure account. For this reason, many webmaster go to investment soso or baidu such PPC advertising. But from this, also can see Google is still “like” of China, and in the first paragraph of the news, we can more sure Google’s means. But it also exposed Google’s some wrong operation mode: First of all, Google is the big race, baidu itself baidu China have dominated much of the market, and Google newcomers instead not, because baidu in China the first to use in the search engine model, so Google and baidu than the market reached more than being incredibly, and Google for us what basically no window. When everyone was crying, holiday gifts this year when not, if you’re in the imitation somebody else, that sure you have no the development of the market, even though baidu imitate the force, but baidu earlier Google really dominate the customers, so Google if want to be in the domestic market share of the higher up, so the first thing is to make a serious investigation about the market of China business report, from the competition small or immature market the demand of customer, frank and deal with the customer, and in dealing with the policy, many and tencent and baidu learning, more reference to others. Second, Google in domestic need real gathered popularity, baidu stick and baidu is the most typical know two kind of mode, although Google the ends of heaven, but development than baidu and Google and no like baidu that to your own products granted high weight. Here again, I started to use there, I don’t know this or Google company. In addition, Google workers should be more and love Google’s G fan of communication, if I remember correctly, it, in addition to how big account will some extra enthusiasm, basically, Google for the customer to belong to cool type, Google’s customer backstage, Google staff are super cool, on the face can write 0, to give who are the same reply. The domestic many large-scale web site at first is interactive and activities improve the popularity, so Google this year to reflect on their not ready to SEO, I think Google return not equal to reflect upon your own no use of existing customers, no better development in China, after all, Chinese people have their own character, we need is enthusiasm. So, finally, Google should let yourself is in different countries have different vitality. Google employees warm enough, not unique publicity mode, the cause of death is one of Google. Google should understand more about the needs of the Chinese people, and use some of the unique method to promote expanded his client group, then combine the national demand, naturally, development also is easy, so, Google needs now is more extensive customer cooperation, more excellent use of customer resources and so on hand to Google is not so difficult to development. If any further people ask you to leave China Google? Then you should tell him to Google’s mouth is still holding the Chinese this meat, but simply do not yet know how to eat down just.

A few days ago, Google home page in a trade promotion for the company, this it is a rare use of its high quality network property to do the advertisement example. In addition, Google also in the recent acquisition of digital coupons and reward plan providers Zave grow independently in order to enhance its business team. This suggests that Google is trying to tap into market.
For Google, the platform for the shareholder may not kill, has the stress, focus on the advantage resources, the grounding user experience, simple to maximize value.
Cut business, Google autumn thorough cleaning

The user can through the Aardvark website, Twitter, Google Chat or E-mail from Aardvark questions “” for the answer. Up to last year in October, Aardvark have more than 90000 users. Web page newspaper reading application Fast Flip is by Google beauty vice President Marissa Mayer andimarisa meyer (in 2009) the TechCrunch50 conference roll out ceremoniously; And Google launched in 2004 PC file search application Google Desktop, praised the performance than Windows XP original search function more strong.
Earlier, Google announced it will readjust product the circuit diagram and concentrate on developing valuable products. Therefore, since this year, Google shut down a number of operations. Close to the end of June, the Google Health and Google PowerMeter service. The end of July, and closed the Google products laboratory Google Labs, including 56 of experimental products. In August, popular with customers online Dictionary service Google Dictionary suddenly off the assembly line, a year ago to spend 0 million takeover of the social game company Slide also XieKe behind the closed doors.
To this, Google senior vice President Alan especially, Alan Eustace) stavropol (say, this is a “autumn cleaning,” these measures will be “for our customers with more forthright of experience, and still can promote Google’s overall experience, and we will also can put more resources to apply the important products with high influence.”
Busy acquisition, extension market sprint
And give will stay. In important areas, Google has never is generous in giving high investment. Now, though, market are moving in the winter, Facebook also has close to business, but Google has been increased to market development efforts, with giant at Groupon confrontation, on purchase.
Google had in 2010 to billion a day Groupon takeover offer by the latter, but refused. Since then, to fight the growing influence Groupon, Google launched his own service to Google, also plans to launch this summer supporting the mobile payment services Google purse.
In fact, Google march and even in the field of e-commerce not small. Ambition One start the business integration to, and show the mobile payment in the blueprint of field. According to information, Google will and Google purse, Google integrated user can by mail or the application result system equipment services, in addition, the team received only carry cell phones, in to buy goods in the mobile phone scan items, it can form the label shopping list, click confirm can finish after payment.
In order to expand business, Google jan.7 influence at mobilize resources, even big takeover. Note the, August 31,, Google in the simple on the homepage of promoting a own transactions, issued tickets for the American museum of natural history of advertising. Use the search page quality resources to advertising, such examples in Google internal extremely rare, only the most core products, such as Chrome browser, there hae been this treatment. Business in Google overall strategy evidenced in the position. The industry, a move that people point out that the competition between Google and Groupon upgrade, the two companies are competing for the advertising revenue from local businesses, such as restaurants and retail shops, etc.
And in takeovers, the recent acquisition of specialized production to grow independently Zave for vouchers and loyalty bonus cash register platform. Google company a spokesman says: “they have developed a great platform, the platform to consumers and coupons and business, but also can be linked to consumers like in the business of providing special discounts and rebates, we hope that they will melt into Google’s business team in.” Because Groupon, LivingSocial and home to more than 100 other service provider of existence, coupons and loyalty reward has become one of the billions of dollars in the market.
Earlier, Google also acquired coupons polymerization Dealmap and mobile web site The membership card company Punchd, improve their business team.
Do platform, focus on the user experience
Since January Google co-founder Larry Page (brief benchwarmer) to be the new CEO, Google began to change strategy since a series of “thin body movements”, concise company operation, close to the edge of the field, product segmentation focus on a few great influence on the important products, such as Google +.
For Google, Facebook, such as in large platform c mode is not everything. Google before sowing is not all harvest in return. Facebook in areas that have not, user, capital, flow advantage is not killer.
As a platform, the integration of its resources, form 1 + 1 > 2 effect, still need to QuCuQuJing around the user experience, innovation. In the mobile Internet times, apple type of minimalism success just depends on grasp the needs of the users, simple.
Now, Google is watching from around social, search and mobile core areas such as integration of resources, Google + or will be the future of every business “aircraft carriers”. For example, Google to e-commerce business vice President, said the Tilenius Stephanie Google mobile payment strategy has just started, the future will Google purse (Google Wallet), Google (Google) embedded Google +, to pay attention to the online payment.
And to the certain scale Internet companies, continuous innovation ability and to the needs of the user sensitivity is very important. In the process of changing Internet field, meet the new change, the new challenges in the most important farmar is innovation.
Google CFO Patrick Pichette (and cut skin, had said: “for now we scale, it is the key is how to keep the business state. We have not lost the entrepreneurial spirit. Through a few months ago, the restructuring of the page will hope to focus on the product.” Google choices, maybe just shows, the innovation of the Internet for the company is to retrieve the innovation of product of genes and concentration.

It have no purpose, just make the user feel fun, also can’t bring to the company profits directly. Why Google in the past ten DuoNian to cost between human, material and financial resources to do a thing without profit thing?AThe napkin, white board and pizzaInto the design of theCurrent Google Doodle designer’s chief Michael Lopez (Michael Lopez) is science fiction fans, Google has launched the UFO Doodle and crop circles Doodle made out of his hands. These Doodle is to mark the science fiction writer, Herbert George Wells (H.G.) launched the signatures.With designer personal temperament Doodle in creating a more casual, when Google in the United States within the company, Michael lopez with dozens of people Doodle team, they will be collected from all over the world Google idea, then the group discussion out various concepts.Their discussion is optional sit together with a pencil, stylist, the idea of painting in the at hand of any place, napkin, walls, desktop and sofa, and then discuss ideas with Google whether the innovation of the style and taste. Google also encourage stylist to the office to go outside, go to work in time to the countryside sketch, outing, tried looking for inspiration.”Creation process is completely free, usually only need for a napkin, 4 piece of white board and a few box of pizza can let us get final concept.” Michael lopez said. Usually in get concept, stylist can use after one to two days to drawing, finally complete Doodle. But in some large festival, such as Christmas, Doodle would advance some day prepare, if some Doodle need more complex technology, using the time also will be a little longer. Whenever an interesting Doodle appeared in Google home page, users stay longer time, Google designers will get goose bumps, because they can feel how users like them.Doodle production from the original pictures, way to use Java script written, but it has no fixed date and style.At first, it is not a special project, launched by the users after like, just special someone to design, but Doodle now is not responsible for the designer of the special the piece, Doodle they just part of the job, they don’t draw Doodle, be design web pages and all kinds of Google products for visual design.Google worked in China have a stylist says: “Doodle is Google brand is an important part of it more fun, creative, and very popular, Google enterprise culture also is such, hope more relaxed. Google Doodle is interesting enterprise culture of a expression.”BOnly kai-fu lee to wear a suitEach summer one day, the United States Google company headquarters always center on the outside of the 200 goats, they are Google company from a sheep farm weeding, because borrowed for Google didn’t want to use weeding machines, borrow the sheep in the pollution of noise weeding and land for fertilizer.Google in China within the company, only served Google global vice President and the President of the China li kaifu in a dark suit and tie, appear with other employees are not the same.In the other world Google company, employees wear casual, some people dressed in word procrastinates will come to work.

Paul Adams in silicon valley hot. He is a brilliant product designers, wearing glasses box, to speak with a strong Irish accent, crazy passion worship of 4 excessive technical lunatic. As Google (Google) top social network researchers, Google new social networking sites Google + the idea behind largely from his creativity and: Google + of flexible “circle” function allows users to easily put friends into “friend” or “university elder brothers”. But he didn’t Google will be in their ideas to the consumers. In the last 12 months of a genius in the race, he chose to join is located in east palo alto 10 miles of Facebook, to help design their social advertising. To this, Adams in blog explains: “Google value is technology, not social.”
Technology companies to compete against each other on the situation, but there are few like Google and Facebook the two network between the hottie such fierce competition and cruel. In order to get such talents as Adams, attract users eyeball, for the advertising revenue, they will win at all costs. Although the two companies not as Oracle (Oracle) and hewlett-packard (HP) publicly vilified as provocation, also have no such as Microsoft (Microsoft) and Netscape (Netscape) as the gun fire to Ming dao, but both competition for investment great chips. Both want to be the master of future network–and the final result will influence our access to information, communication and the structure of the deal.
Facebook and Google: the battle of the king
A belligerent party is the social network Facebook “king”, hope to solidify his status, master of all life online. And the other side Google is control of the global mass information, leads people search way, it is hope that in the Internet links from age to a people-oriented in the process of change to keep their ruling status.
Google co-founder and CEO larry ? page (taking office in April) than the Facebook mark ? zack bloomberg older 11 years old, but they belong to different network generation, and have a very different view of the world. In the world of page, all from the search began. The user through search to see news, find love shoes, tracking, favorite celebrity dynamic. If need to understand the medical conditions or decided to need to buy TV model, the user must first to search in. And in that field, Google program after ten DuoNian improvement has been like a duck to water. But in recent years, the network world but in gradually to the bloomberg, zack world tilt, the change is a cruel even. In the world of bloomberg, zack, we no longer through the search for news, but waiting for a friend to tell us the fresh information, told us they like movies, favorite brand, even to go there to eat delicious sushi.
Now, Facebook has become the core of the new Internet world, a lot of people a day of online life also start from here. And Facebook the secret to success is to let the company in the network communication, and allow others to share in the user circle of friends. The results, of tens of thousands of web sites and applications as like satellite, around the operation of Facebook. We can open a comment on site Yelp view friends how to evaluate the street to a new coffee shop, to online music service website Spotify, let friends to help us choose music, or play with friends and social game company Zynga game. And for page for, worse Google program can’t capture these social activities, lead to this program, even Google search itself to ensure the accuracy of the increasingly down, and then increasingly with people’s living apart.
Network to the transformation of social change in all respects change the companies and consumers. The first to feel the impact of industries including advertising. Now, the billion online advertising market, Google’s share to 41%, and in search advertising market, Google has topped the list. But the search advertising growth is slowing, advertisers began to the limited funds on Facebook. After all, Facebook has 800 million users, and many users on Facebook is the amount of time they spend far more than other web sites. (see page bottom chart) is expected to display advertising revenues this year Facebook will increase by 81%, and Google display advertising revenue growth is expected to 34%. Although Google and Facebook allows us to think that the two companies still have infinite space to grow up, but 10 million don’t be confused by the illusion. Stifel Nicolaus as U.S. investment bank analysts Jordan ? lohan said: “if Google and Facebook not directly exchange, preemption each other’s market share, they are impossible to attain the expectations of the investors in the display advertising market, to realize the increase of billions of dollars.”
Now the page is like the Bill Gates more than 10 years ago, he found the company for science and technology world domination is falling. So he decided to fight back, invest huge energy for the social network market. Page of Google CEO become after the first put fire is launched Google +, increase the capital and engineering power input, the domain of the Facebook to strike. Google + not Google actually in a social network for the first attempt, but Google is in the first paragraph by mocking the industry no social products. Google says, only four months, Google + registered users will reach 40 million. And in the other party, zack bloomberg also very clear, easily overtake MySpace since Facebook as the world’s largest social networking site since, Google + is Facebook’s first met in the true sense of threat. (speaking to Facebook, this is not the struggle of honor: if the company’s aura threatened, would influence its long-awaited IPO. The IPO is expected to scale will exceed billion.) And so, in Google + release soon after, zack and bloomberg headquarters in emergency hang the pink neon signal, top write “alert”, the purpose is to remind employee needs to night and day, work overtime, from Google + the most popular part of the function.
But the defense is not zack bloomberg style. September this year, in the company of the F8 developer conference, he launched the magnitude of the new function, in order to improving the present level of service. And, it is expected that the company will eventually launch a advertising network, management all social behavior, help advertisers in the network more effective to target customers.
