“I was never kinder to the old man than during the whole week before I killed him.” -- Edgar Allen Poe, The Tell-Tale Heart.
Some people dress up in wacky costumes (like us), others carve pumpkins or stay home to pass out treats (my personal favorite is the fun-sized Hershey’s Special Dark Chocolate bars – yum). To help get you in the Halloween spirit, we’ve gathered some of the best classic spine-tingling tales you can find in Google Book Search. At google.com/scarystories, you can rediscover spooky classics like Bram Stoker’s Dracula, Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, and Robert Louis Stevenson’s Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, as well as explore less well-known tales like Thomas Hardy’s Victorian ghost story, "The Withered Arm".

Whenever you see a "Download" button, you're free to download, save, and print a PDF version to read at your own pace. If you decide you want a bound copy, the "All editions" link will show you multiple editions, many of which are available to buy.

We hope exploring these classics helps make your Halloween special -- maybe even keeps you up for a night or two. Please note that some of these books may not be in the public domain everywhere in the world. Where copyright status is in question, we do not enable Full View access or downloading.

Steve Jobs是谁?应该很多人知道吧,呵呵,Apple的创始人,Pixar创始人,Apple现任CEO,不对,要叫iCEO。 看了一晚上youtube上关于Steve Jobs的视频,当然其中很多是几年来Macworld上的keynote speech,很棒。有一个youtuber可能是Jobs的big fan,做得节目基本都是同一个主标题,—— all about Steve,不仅仅包括每次非常有意思的演讲,甚至包括Steve语言特点的专辑,好像Steve在演讲和demo的时候特别喜欢说cool、Boom、Oops等等,那个哥们基本上把这些都剪辑出来形成了专辑,呵呵。还有一个比较有意思的,Steve创办Apple之后,因为同董事局之间的分歧,居然被fire掉,于是Steve创办了Pixar获得成功,所以,在几乎所有的Keynote中,Steve每次展示产品,基本上都要扯上Pixar公司的作品,比如Toy Story、Finding Nemo、Incrediable等等,呵呵,那个哥们也细心的总结了一个专题节目,很逗,呵呵。 有的朋友应该知道Steve的一生不是很顺利,而很有名的就是Steve在Stanford毕业典礼上的一次演讲,讲述他自己这一生的三个故事,很有意义的一个演讲,Youtube上也有,很容易search到。呵呵。有心的可以去找找看。更有意思的是Apple和Microsoft之间的关系,呵呵。Apple在97年差点破产的时候,MS投资15亿美元进入Apple,至今仍然是Apple的大股东,而代价是授权MS发售Apple Mac上office,以及从97年开始,IE作为Mac的默认浏览器,直到03年Safari成功开发出来。推荐大家去找找97年的macworld,youtube上有完整的版本。那年Apple应该是处于一个转折点,而Steve也从被fire之后由重新回到了Apple,而也是那次macworld会议上,宣布了同微软之间的合作。 最后一个很有意思的事情,我在一个视频里面,——当然是关于Steve的视频里面,发现了一个人,很面熟。 大家看那个穿深色西装的是谁,我觉得是Google的Serge,呵呵。这里是视频的地址,有兴趣找一下,呵呵http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KHUH9QOCzDU © Winters Mi for Xerdoc Together, 2006. | Permalink | No comment Add to del.icio.us Search blogs [...]

Source favicon09:04 Google的动词用法 » Blog on 27th Floor
如果一个词太通用的话,似乎就不能当作商标了。所以Google一直反对把Google当作一个通用的词汇,今天Google官方Blog发表文章专门讲解了“Google”的语法问题

原则上Google是个商标,是要保护的品牌,所以Google这个词只能用于指代Google公司或其服务。

名词用法:Google很酷啊。
律师评价:好,非常好。这里指的是Google公司。

动词用法:我在Google.com上面Google了他,很有趣。
律师评价:还可以吧,起码指的是在Google.com上面搜索。正如韦氏字典说的:“Google”指的就是用Google搜索引擎在WWW上查找信息。

动词用法:我在Yahoo上Google了他,很有趣。
律师评价:错,非常非常错。你只能在Google的搜索引擎上面Google。如果要用Google对手的服务,请使用“Search搜索”一词。

总而言之我的理解就是除非和Google公司联系在一起,“Google”将不是一个词。
Source favicon04:18 Do you "Google?" » Official Google Blog


Q: What do zippers, baby oil, brassieres and trampolines have in common?

A: No, the answer isn't that they're all part of the setup for a highly inappropriate joke. In fact, the above list (along with thermos, cellophane, escalator, elevator, dry ice and many more) are all words that fell victim to those products' very success and, as they became more and more popular, slipped from trademarked status into common usage.

Will "Google" manage to avoid this fate? This year has brought a spate of news stories about the word's addition to the Merriam-Webster and the Oxford English dictionaries, an honor that's simultaneously highly flattering and faintly unsettling. Consider, for example, this passage from a New York Times story published last May:

"Jim sent a message introducing himself and asking, 'Do you want to make a movie?'" Mr. Fry recalled in a telephone interview from his home in Buda, Tex. 'So we Googled him, he passed the test, and T called him. That was in March 1996; we spent the summer coming up with the story, and we pitched it that fall.'"
Now, since Larry and Sergey didn't actually launch Google until 1998, Mr. Fry's usage of 'Google' is as distressing to our trademark lawyers as it is thrilling to our marketing folks. So, lest our name go the way of the elevators and escalators of yesteryear, we thought it was time we offered this quick semantic primer.

A trademark is a word, name, symbol or device that identifies a particular company's products or services. Google is a trademark identifying Google Inc. and our search technology and services. While we're pleased that so many people think of us when they think of searching the web, let's face it, we do have a brand to protect, so we'd like to make clear that you should please only use "Google" when you’re actually referring to Google Inc. and our services.

Here are some hopefully helpful examples.

Usage: 'Google' as noun referring to, well, us.
Example: "I just love Google, they're soooo cute and cuddly and adorable and awesome!"
Our lawyers say: Good. Very, very good. There's no question here that you're referring to Google Inc. as a company. Use it widely, and hey, tell a friend.

Usage: 'Google' as verb referring to searching for information on, um, Google.
Example: "I googled him on the well-known website Google.com and he seems pretty interesting."
Our lawyers say: Well, we're happy at least that it's clear you mean searching on Google.com. As our friends at Merriam-Webster note, to "Google" means "to use the Google search engine to find information about (as a person) on the World Wide Web."

Usage: 'Google' as verb referring to searching for information via any conduit other than Google.
Example: "I googled him on Yahoo and he seems pretty interesting."
Our lawyers say: Bad. Very, very bad. You can only "Google" on the Google search engine. If you absolutely must use one of our competitors, please feel free to "search" on Yahoo or any other search engine.
Thanks for your attention, and we look forward to serving your search-related information needs again soon.

Source favicon00:37 搜索的手法 » Blog on 27th Floor
今天不经意间又点出了年初著名的毒药事件,看了一下,还是觉得这位Project-Poison(-B)相当地牛B,他/她在一众人等或骂或捧的时候就祭出Google,没两天工夫就拿出了网络美少年毒药的真实身份。好像后来他还接受了采访,讲述了事情经过。

用Google的手法,在这个采访中透露了一些:

我想,更重要的,是首先知道你要查什么,而不是怎么查的技巧。

这里我坚持的另一条原则是,一个人很难凭空编造这么大的谎言。一个令人信服的谎言,一定是基于某些事实和自己的经历的。所以,我们要做的是找出毒药原话中哪些是前后不矛盾的事情。

你光查景山前街十四号,就很难查出点什么来。

一般超过十页你还没找到你想要的东西,你就得改变你的关键词。所以,功夫还得花在搜索引擎外面,如果你查不到,赶紧改变你的思路。


还是很有点意思的。

其实互联网协会的诸位应该向这位大侠学习,认真研究搜索技巧,锻炼自己的逻辑水平,实名制早就实现了嘛。
