I'm not knocking Google in any way. It's just that, as the article says, Google seems to be developing their new products because thee engineers think they're cool, regardless of whether they're actually commercial. In this way, Google is the Bell Labs of the 21st century.
- drawkbox 16y agoLots of good stuff came out of Bell Labs, modern software being one of them, C++ another. Lots of things you are looking at right now while at your computer were influenced by Bell Labs.
