It is best known for its search engine but as Steven Levy explains Googles ambitions go far beyond internet searching. It has moved into mobile phones computer operating systems television & is the most powerful company in the advertising business. Its advertising business produces revenues so substantial that the company has no difficulty funding all its other projects. The company has an unusual corporate culture which Levy describes. The founders are often seen on Rollerblades there are exercise breaks for employees & certain foods are either free or minimally priced. There is simultaneously an atmosphere of seriousness & playfulness. What role this corporate culture plays in the companys success is one question that In the Plex will address. For example every Googler has 20% time -- employees are allowed to spend 20% of their time on projects of their own devising. No manager can prevent this. Some successful corporate businesses have come from 20% time. Levy provides the background on Googles decision to enter the Chinese market a decision that was controversial within the company at the time & which has recently made news as Google threatens to withdraw from China. He explains how cloud computing" is the next frontier for Google & he takes the reader into product development including products that should be reaching market around the time the book is published.

In The Pleasure Groove

With Duran Duran John Taylor has created some of the greatest songs of our time. From the disco dazzle of debut single Planet Earth right up to their latest number one album All You Need is Now Duran Duran has always had the power to sweep the world onto its feet. Its been a ride - and for John in particular the ride has been wild thrilling...and dangerous. Now for the first time he tells his incredible story - a tale of dreams fulfilled lessons learned and demons conquered. A shy only child Nigel John Taylor wasnt an obvious candidate for pop stardom and frenzied girl panic. But when he ditched his first name and picked up a bass guitar everything changed. John formed Duran Duran with his friend Nick Rhodes in the spring of 1978 and they were soon joined by Roger Taylor then Andy Taylor
and finally Simon Le Bon. Together they were an immediate massive global success story their pictures on millions of walls every single a worldwide hit. In his frank compelling autobiography John recounts the highs - hanging out with icons like Bowie Warhol and even James Bond; dating Vogue models and driving fast cars - all the while playing hard with the band he loved. But he faced tough battles ahead - troubles that brought him to the brink of self-destruction - before turning his life around. Told with humour honesty and hard-won wisdom and packed with exclusive pictures In the Pleasure Groove is a fascinating irresistible portrait of a man who danced into the fire...and came through the other side.
