you may have read, Google, Comcast, Intel Capital, Time Warner
Cable, Bright House Networks and Trilogy Equity Partners have
entered into an agreement to invest $3.2 billion in a new wireless
broadband company. The new company will combine Clearwire's
existing consumer WiMAX business with Sprint's broadband
infrastructure and 2.5 GHz spectrum to create a new nationwide
wireless broadband network. In addition to our $500 million
contribution as part of the investment group, we will provide
search and applications to the network's users, and will work
with Clearwire to offer additional services and applications. This
will include jointly creating an open Internet protocol to work
with mobile broadband devices (including href="http://code.google.com/android/" id="e_d:"
>Android-powered devices) and implementing other
open network practices and policies.

We believe that the new network will provide wireless consumers
with real choices for the software applications, content and
handsets that they desire. Such freedom will mirror the openness
principles underlying the Internet and enable users to get the most
out of their wireless broadband experience. As we've supported
open standards for spectrum and wireless handsets, we're
especially excited that Clearwire intends to build and maintain a
network that will embrace important openness features. In
particular, the network will: (1) expand advanced high speed
wireless Internet access in the U.S., (2) allow consumers to
utilize any lawful applications, content and devices without
blocking, degrading or impairing Internet traffic and (3) engage in
reasonable and competitively-neutral network management.

We're looking forward to seeing the Clearwire network take
shape and begin to deliver benefits to users, and we will continue
to look for new partners to promote openness and bring compelling
applications and services to end users. There's more
information on Clearwire and the transaction on href="http://www.clearwire.com/transaction/" >Clearwire's

Larry Page talks about artificial intelligence

Larry Page speaks of artificial intelligence in AAAS annual meeting [Video] (google should create the world most the) of artificial intelligence lab of Top:

I forecast AI to have a lot of consideration, won’t compare white edition blackboard these things are cleverer, it is a lot of computation merely.

Human program, DNS, include to start cerebrum, it is 600m probably, he compares Linux, windows, any other operating systems are small, I guess, order pattern of the mankind is overall and character is different.

The effort with massive Google builds artificial intelligence. (… ) perfect search, should OK give any problems perfect answer, it will be artificial intelligence. Everything what be based on a network, it is adjacent at least perfect. (… )

I do not think what think like people is same, artificial intelligence is very far.

Towards more renewable energy

Filed under: Official Google Blog — Wrote by Lees on Wednesday, December 12th, 2007 @ 9:56 pm

Posted by Larry Page, Co-Founder and
President of Products

Clean and affordable energy is a growing need for our company, and
we’re excited about the opportunity to help create competitive
green alternatives. href="http://www.google.com/intl/en/press/pressrel/20071127_green.html" >
Our new initiative isn’t just about Google’s energy needs;
we're seeking to accelerate the pace at which clean energy
technologies are developing, so they can rival the economics of
coal quickly. We've gained expertise in designing and building
large-scale, energy-intensive facilities by building data centers
that lead the industry in efficiency. We want to apply the same
creativity and innovation to the challenge of generating
inexpensive renewable electricity at scale.

Promising technologies already exist that could be developed to
deliver renewable energy cheaper than coal. We think the time is
ripe to build rapidly on the tremendous work on renewable energy.
For example, I believe that solar thermal technology provides a
very plausible path to generating cheaper electricity. By combining
talented technologists, great partners and large investments, we
have an opportunity to quickly push this technology forward. Our
goal is to build 1 gigawatt of renewable energy capacity that is
cheaper than coal. We are optimistic that this can be done within
years, not decades. If we succeed, it would likely provide a path
to replacing a substantial portion of the world’s electricity needs
with renewable energy sources.

To lead this effort, we're looking for a world-class team. We
need creative and motivated entrepreneurs and technologists with
expertise in a broad range of areas, including materials science,
physics, chemistry, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering,
land acquisition and management, power transmission and
substations, construction, and regulatory issues. href="http://www.google.com/jobs/energy/" >Join us. And if

First year of Google WiFi

Filed under: Official Google Blog — Wrote by Lees on Saturday, December 8th, 2007 @ 6:00 am

By Minnie Ingersoll, Chris Sacca &
Larry Alder, Alternative Access Team

Our Mountain View WiFi network just celebrated its

href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2006/08/free-citywide-wifi-in-mountain-view.html"
id="g7.:" >first anniversary
, and we thought you'd
appreciate a few data points. The network's 400 mesh routers
cover about 12
square miles
and 25,000 homes to serve approximately 15,000
unique users each week month. Since the beginning of
2007, traffic has grown almost 10 percent each month, and the
network now handles over 300 gigabytes of data each day, sent to
over 100 distinct types of WiFi devices. Virtually the entire city
has been taking advantage of the network, with 95 percent of the
mesh routers being used on any given day.

Around the globe and across the U. S., many people are still not
able to access the online services that are increasingly helpful,
if not essential, tools for our daily lives. This is why we're
committed to promoting alternative platforms for people to access
the web, no matter where you are, what you're doing or what
device you're using.

For those who have been following href="https://home.feather.net/sanfrancisco" id="c03t" >the
effort to create a free wireless network in San Francisco, we
continue to hope that EarthLink and The City will find a way to
enable all San Franciscans to enjoy the free WiFi network they
deserve. On a broader scale, we hope that the success of the
Mountain View model will encourage others to think creatively about
how to address access issues in many other communities.

Update: Corrected usage
from "week" to "month." height="1" width="1" />
