Why Doesn't Google Ever Move Anything Out Of "Beta?"







Why Doesn't Google Ever Move Anything
Out Of "Beta?"

Why Doesn't Google Ever Move Anything
Out Of "Beta?"
04/03/2005 03:45 AM

Dave, this is a simple question, but profound: how come almost every new tool that Google releases stays in “beta” forever? This is a fascinating question and one that I’ve wondered too, as I’ve watched Orkut come and go in the public eye, Gmail shake up the entire world of free Web-based e-mail, Google News get slapped with a lawsuit for misappropriation of intellectual property, Google Catalog Search, and Froogle gain surprisingly little visibility, and…

"Google Local" Goes beta


"Google Local" Goes beta 02/05/2005 10:16 PM

Google has taken live on its homepage a new service for locating local businesses, which scours millions of Web pages and crosschecks the results with the Yellow Pages data. Google LoLocal_res_logo2cal was previously part of the company's Google Labs development sandbox, but has now been deemed ready for widespread use.

One example cited by Google is using the service to find an auto parts store within walking distance. Google Local shows results on an area map, and can limit results to a specific distance from a user's starting point. For frequent local searchers, Google remembers the location in which to look.  Although the service currently only works in the United States and Canada, Google plans to expand its reach in due time. The company also expects to provide a way for businesses to add themselves.

Google News beta


Google News beta 09/24/2002 05:08 AM
Google News presents information culled from approximately 4,000 news sources worldwide and automatically arranged to present the most relevant news first. Topics are updated continuously throughout the day, so you will see new stories each time you check the page. Google has developed an automated grouping process for Google News that pulls together related headlines and photos from thousands of sources worldwide -- enabling you to see how different news organizations are reporting the same story. You pick the item that interests you, then go directly to the site which published the account you wish to read.

Google News is highly unusual in that it offers a news service compiled solely by computer algorithms without human intervention. Google employs no editors, managing editors, or executive editors. While the sources of the news vary in perspective and editorial approach, their selection for inclusion is done without regard to political viewpoint or ideology. While this may lead to some occasionally unusual and contradictory groupings, it is exactly this variety that makes Google News a valuable source of information on the important issues of the day.

You can trace the history of a developing issue by clicking the "sort by date" function on the page containing all reports on a given topic. This will arrange the stories in chronological order, with the most recent report placed first.
