Increased competition? Seriously Google.
The current count of European Search Engines in your own memo is 0.
- abalos 12y agoIn Google's defense, they're also an American company. All of these companies are American companies. Thus, they're all competing in Europe.
- nostrebored 12y agoAnd is that a fault of Google or a terrible system for software innovation? Google was created while students in a very successful university collaborated with the means to actually make their vision a reality. Excluding GB, how many schools in the EU fit that bill? I can think of ETH Zurich and that's it.
- Sven7 12y agoThe caliber of the schools don't matter anymore. Nobody is capable of accumulating the quantities of data/processing power Google has access too. So search innovation more or less just lies in their hands and hasn't really gone anywhere beyond where they want it to go from lack of competition. Besides ofcourse in China and Russia where local alternatives have the breathing room to exist.
