“All the Right Moves”
More on Google, Sergey, Larry, and life at the Googleplex.
Quick Note: The article also mentions AlltheWeb and Wisenut. As we’ve said many times before and are saying again, it’s great to see AtW getting more attention. However, the article is incorrect in stating that, “AlltheWeb uses human editors to review and refine searches, as does another upstart, Wisenut.com, which is owned by LookSmart.” Both of these engines, like Google, are fully automated prodcuts. Wisenut has been and continues to be a big disappointment. Yes, the engine is still available online but the database is out of date and no additional features or improvements have been made in a very long time. In a recent look around Wisenut I found pages from major sites that haven’t been recrawled/updated in over one year.
