A: So in some way, we’re just going to have to get used to that... that this information is out there.
B: Well, partly people will adapt. The most interesting question to me is you have a generation now that is growing up on Facebook where they’re putting up information about themselves that they might regret twenty years from now.
A: Might, probably will. Wait till these guys start running for political office, right?
B: I have a specific suggestion that it should be common and legal to change your name at twenty-one and say, "That wasn’t me. It was a different person. Kind of looks like me but I’ve changed a lot." So we’re going to deal with the fact that the behavior of people on line when they are teenagers is not the sort of thing that they want to know when they are mature adults in leadership positions: or maybe society will grow up such that it doesn’t care. But right now we are in a situation where one lives a perfect life and he makes one mistake and everything is recorded and that becomes his defining outcome. That doesn’t seem very fair.
A: Seems to argue a little bit that maybe there’s just too much computing and connectedness out there.
B: Well, if that’s true, it’s because consumers want it. From our perspective, the appetite from being on line to knowing what other people are doing, to communicating, to sharing ideas, to being optimistic, to being entertained, to figuring out what Brittney Spears is doing ... this demand is insatiable.
A: Now that your company has become as omnipresent as it has and as interwoven into our lives as it has, what do you do to keep it there, to keep us as dependent on you as we are?
B: Hopefully, it’s not dependent upon you. Hopefully, it’s because you come to Google because we do amazing things. Normally in the Valley, in Silicon Valley, companies have one great product idea that, as the company gets older, it gets slow and it gets complicated and then a new upstart idea comes along that outpaces them. So that’s the story about Silicon Valley. So we designed Google so that we would be innovative inside of ourselves at any size and scale. Now let’s hope that this continues. We’re organized around something that’s called " 20 percent time", which means that engineers can spend roughly one day a week, or 20 percent of their working time, which is a lot, working on things that they find interesting. Most of our new ideas come from that 20 percent time. What will happen is an engineer will come up to me and say, "I have to show you a demo. You have to see it and you have to see it right now!" And I’ll see it right away.
A: Right away. Maybe that’s the key to Google’s unprecedented success. Thanks for your time.
B: My pleasure.
