![]() The Google Story $12.39 Google is one of the biggest brands in the world. Everyone of us uses it as least few times a day. Of course, a book should have been written about it. Still, the more books of american authors I read the more I see their incredible skill to worship business leaders as half-gods. This book is one of the cases - yes, these two Google guys are extremely smart and worth admiration, but not everything they do is close to divine. This style of writing eventually starts to irritate. If you do decide to read this book, skip first 100 pages, they are literally about nothing and then read every-second page - you will not miss anything because all the stories are a bit too much exagerated. Also, try not to pay attention that authors themselves constantly vary from novel-style-of-writing to pure statistics and numbers. So, to sum it up, it's worth reading only in a way I advised, otherwise it will be too much of a time waste. Google is worth admiration but this book - definetly not. ![]() Google Apps: The Missing Manual $39.99 The Missing Manual by Nancy Conner is a beautifully presented and well illustrated manual about Google Apps. I was most pleasantly pleased by the completeness and breadth of the book. ![]() What Would Google Do? LP $26.99 Nice book to get you started on digital media. It has good clues on the sucess of the most important companies on the digital age. ![]() Bolle Shark Goggle,Black,Clear Lens $24.99 These are cool and keep the snow off your eyes while you shovel snow in the unexpected blizzards. I'm sure you could use them to ski if you do that sort of thing. |
