Google in New York

I had a great opportunity to visit Google's New York offices yesterday. Unfortunately, I had to leave early, but what struck me the most was the consistent focus on Google's mission: organizing the world's information.

For example, someone asked why Google hasn't considered charging for content instead of having it all advertising supported. That's easy: advertising facilitates access to this information.

One other interesting thing I hadn't heard about is the idea of partner-specific pages on Google Video, like this one for Sundance. "But how do you monetize those pages?" asked someone from the audience. The answer came without hesitation: "We don't."
