The Global Id

Good overview, with some history, of Google. Not as much on the 'global ID' as I would have liked. "On the one hand, Google is cool. On the other hand, Google has the potential to destroy the publishing industry, the newspaper business, high street retailing and our privacy. Not that it will necessarily do any of these things, but for the first time, considered soberly, these things are technologically possible."
