The co-founder of Google, Sergey Brin, is
concerned concerning
the deficiency
of web
freedom. He believes
that applications and social
networks such
as Facebook are creating
things less
broadly
available
towards
the outside globe
because
they prevent
particular
info
from being
picked up by search
engines. This
really is not the
lack of internet
freedom which
was disputed
with
regards to
the SOPA bill in
the US, which
would have impacted
web
hosts like
Blue host, but more
to do with how info
is controlled
online. In an interview with the Guardian, Brin said
"I am more worried than I have been in the past. It's scary... There's a lot to be lost. For example, all the information in apps - that data is not crawlable by web crawlers. You can't search it. You have to play by their rules, which are really restrictive. The kind of environment that we developed Google in, the reason that we were able to develop a search engine, is the web was so open. Once you get too many rules, that will stifle innovation."
More like it'll stifle Google's ability to offer the services it wishes to. Brin is obviously going to protect his old company against its recognized rivals like Facebook and Twitter however the actuality is that the web is altering. In my view search engines like Google will turn out to be increasingly unimportant inside a number of years for 2 factors.
1. The growth of the usage of mobile phones indicates that searches will become even more devoted to a person's individual preferences. Not only will searches need to bring up nearby information in the vicinity which they're in but also, it'll need to have more relevant info. Social networks are far better at helping you uncover relevant information as recommendations from buddies and suggestions from groups are a lot more authoritative than a generic search outcome. Google knows this and this is the purpose for the advent of Google+.
2. Technological enhancements such as Siri and maybe other new breakthroughs will see search engines perhaps still being utilized to find info but not directly. User preferences, associated with their social networking sites and from other sources, will probably be a part of these types of searches.
Brin it appears is more anxious that the information for Google to provide such a service themselves isn't possible, because it isn't a social networking platform solely. He consequently is worried that hegemonic status will go to an additional firm such as Facebook, Twitter or maybe yet another firm completely.
