The fact that he rehashed a speech given to another university only a day before cheapens the message that he was trying to convey to us earlier today. I agree that our ceremony was a special moment, Schmidt’s laziness indicates to me that he didn’t feel that way about it. He wrote the speech for Carnegie Mellon; he edited it for us.

Can’t complain because it was a great moment.

There is Google-killer algorithm and Google-killer brand. Which one do you refer to? Google-killer algorithm is something that is easy to do, just ask researchers from Microsoft Asia of how they developed an algorithm (a few years back) that was shown in test to have outperformed the Google PageRank algorithm. So, this algorithm definitely was a Google-killer, just check out the following Microsoft paper, which you can download a PDF copy :

Block-level Link Analysis

Microsoft killed Google algorithmically, but they didn’t kill them by brand-name. There is no doubt that Google has moved on and developed something that is more robust, since Microsoft published their PageRank killer, but it wouldn’t changed that fact that Microsoft was a PageRank killer but failed to be a Google brand killer.

Perhaps, TechCrunch editors should learn to differentiate between the 2, Google-algorithm-killer and Google-brand-killer, because the majority of readers here don’t know the difference.

Yeah, the technology had changes our life. By the way, I’m still loyal to Adsense although they’re some alternative. Sometimes we can’t consider much about money. It’s about our life which needs to be improved from time to time.

I think he could have gone a bit longer than 10 minutes, though.
