Book Reviews of The Search: How Google and Its Rivals Rewrote the Rules of Business and Transformed Our Culture

Book Review: Great for everything it contains
Summary: 5 Stars

Nice uncomplicated approach to the topic. Really good intro on the early years...yes search engines did exist before Google.

The real value is in the overview of search itself, and how it came to be what it is today and its implications on society.

We'll worth reading for anyone interested in search or the internet in general.
