These are the types of things that made me fall in love with Google in the 00's. It makes me happy that Google is continuing its quest to make all historical documents available to everyone.
Now, I know cynics can argue that "This is just Google driving more search traffic!" or "This is Google putting a ton of money into a PR campaign!" In fact, I would be one of those cynics if I didn't believe this is just residue from a kinder, more lofty-goaled Google that was led by Larry and Sergey.
I want the old Google back.
- rakkhi 16y agoTotally agree I think it is brilliant that Google can spend resources on projects like this, for me it is similar to lofty goals like scanning all printed books on earth so they are digitally searchable, I mean how else would most people discover the long tail of books? Also streetview with covering the entire globe, computer driven cars and investment in wind farms are projects that could really advance humanity. I don't even mind as a shareholder!
