Google Timing
It's Friday evening, and I was poking around the web and ran across something interesting:
Last week of April: Wolfram announces it's new search product. Google announces it's new structured data product that same day.
Last week of July, 2008. Google competitor Cuil launches, claiming a huge number of documents searched. Just days before, Google announces 1 Trillion docs searched
First week of June, 2008. Wikia Search announces a new feature to allow users to add and delete URLs to search results. The next month Google announced similar features
This week Microsoft started floating Bing, a new search engine. Google announces Wave, the next big thing on the internet.
Google has great timing. I mean really, really great timing.
