Google’s Secret Plans Revealed

Google Blogoscoped has published a summary of an apparently-leaked internal Google memo that outlines the Big G’s secret plans to breed evil radioactive mutant rats, er, take over the world, er, make a ton of money this year. To summarize the summary, this year Google planned to:



Improve infrastructure and make engineers more productive with uber-search tools

Build 10MW of green power toward its goal of becoming carbon-neutral

Become the best in search (duh), which includes building the world’s top AI lab, eliminating spam, and launching products with UIs that “that people love”

Sell lots of ads, with a goal of $1 billion in new business this year

Expand communities and content, in particular video

Push Google Pack deployment

“Increase the scale of innovation”

Test a “radicall improved” Google News prototype in Q4
