    John Battelle
  • Publication Details

    Book, Portfolio, 2005
  • Description

    Battelle draws on more than 350 interviews with major players from Silicon Valley to Seattle to Wall Street, including Google cofounders Larry Page and Sergey Brin and CEO Eric Schmidt, as well as competitors like Louis Monier, who invented AltaVista, and Neil Moncrief, a soft-spoken Georgian whose business Google built, destroyed, and built again. Battelle lucidly reveals how search technology actually works, explores the amazing power of targeted advertising, and reports on the frenzy of the Google IPO, when the company tried to rewrite the rules of Wall Street and declared “don’t be evil” as its corporate motto. -Seth Godin, author of All Marketers Are Liars and Purple Cow “Nobody, and I mean nobody, has thought longer, harder, or smarter about Google and the search business than John Battelle.” (automatically summarized from Amazon.com)

    Book, Houghton Mifflin Co, 2000
  • Description

    In 1996, Tom Ashbrook was an international reporter who, in a crisis of the soul, resolved to join an old college classmate on the Internet rocket ride. Success, when it finally comes, is sweet, but it is Ashbrook’s story of self-transformation along the way that wins our hearts with its candor, its unabashed zeal, and the self-deprecating humor the author shares as he throws himself and his family over the edge in the middle of life to reach out for a new beginning.
