Here is an interesting bit from Liz Ruskin, contributing editor of SmartBrief on Leadership taken from a panel on Milken Institute Global Conference in Los Angeles.
“Greg Papadopoulos, CTO of Sun Microsystems, said that now we’re impressed when Google searches a sea of information for us in mere seconds but we should be dissatisfied with this mode of search. In the future, he said, search will be done for us. Every electronic device we buy will connect to a network and our search results will be based on things like our location to our preferences and past behaviors. Search engines will know what we mean, not just the definitions of the words we use to describe it.”
This is an interesting tease. I tried to find more on Google but only found references to his views on cloud computing and open source. He likes them. Does anyone know more about this?
