In the <a href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2007/01/controlling-how-search-engines-access.html">first post</a>, I introduced <span style="font-family:Courier New;">robots.txt</span> and the robots <span style="font-family:Courier New;">META</span> tags, giving an overview of when to use them. In the <a title="second post" href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2007/02/robots-exclusion-protocol.html">second post</a>, I shared some examples of what you can do with the REP. Today, I'll introduce two new features that we have recently added to the protocol.<br /><br />As a product manager, I'm always talking to content providers to learn about your needs for REP. We are constantly looking for ways to improve the control you have over how your content is indexed. These new features will give you flexible and convenient ways to improve the detailed control you have with Google.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Tell us if a page is going to expire</span><br />Sometimes you know in advance that a page is going to expire in the future. Maybe you have a temporary page that will be removed at the end of the month. Perhaps some pages are available free for a week, but after that you put them into an archive that users pay to access. In these cases, you want the page to show in Google search results until it expires, then have it removed: you don't want users getting frustrated when they find a page in the results but can't access it on your site.<br /><br />We have introduced a new <span style="font-family:Courier New;">META</span> tag that allows you to tell us when a page should be removed from the main Google web search results: the aptly named <span style="font-family:Courier New;">unavailable_after</span> tag. This one follows a similar syntax to other REP <span style="font-family:Courier New;">META</span> tags. For example, to specify that an HTML page should be removed from the search results after 3pm Eastern Standard Time on 25th August 2007, simply add the following tag to the first <span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span> section of the page:<br /><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;"><META NAME="GOOGLEBOT" CONTENT="unavailable_after: 25-Aug-2007 15:00:00 EST"></span><br /><br />The date and time is specified in the <a title="RFC 850 format" href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc0850.txt">RFC 850 format</a>.<br /><br />This information is treated as a removal request: it will take about a day after the removal date passes for the page to disappear from the search results. We currently only support <span style="font-family:Courier New;">unavailable_after</span> for Google web search results.<br /><br />After the removal, the page stops showing in Google search results but it is not removed from our system. If you need a page to be excised from our systems completely, including any internal copies we might have, you should use the existing URL removal tool which you can read about on our <a title="Webmaster Central blog" href="http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com/2007/04/requesting-removal-of-content-from-our.html">Webmaster Central blog</a>.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Meta tags everywhere</span><br />The REP <span style="font-family:Courier New;">META</span> tags give you useful control over how each webpage on your site is indexed. But it only works for HTML pages. How can you control access to other types of documents, such as Adobe PDF files, video and audio files and other types? Well, now the same flexibility for specifying per-URL tags is available for all other files type.<br /><br />We've extended our support for <span style="font-family:Courier New;">META</span> tags so they can now be associated with any file. Simply add any supported <span style="font-family:Courier New;">META</span> tag to a new <span style="font-family:Courier New;">X-Robots-Tag</span> directive in the <a title="HTTP Header" href="http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html">HTTP Header</a> used to serve the file. Here are some illustrative examples:<br /><ul><li>Don't display a cache link or snippet for this item in the Google search results:<br /></li></ul> <div align="left"><span style="font-family:Courier New;">X-Robots-Tag: noarchive, nosnippet</span><br /></div> <ul><li>Don't include this document in the Google search results:<br /></li></ul><span style="font-family:Courier New;">X-Robots-Tag: noindex</span><br /><ul><li>Tell us that a document will be unavailable after 7th July 2007, 4:30pm GMT:</li></ul><span style="font-family:Courier New;">X-Robots-Tag: unavailable_after: 7 Jul 2007 16:30:00 GMT </span><br /><br />You can combine multiple directives in the same document. For example:<br /><ul><li>Do not show a cached link for this document, and remove it from the index after 23rd July 2007, 3pm PST: </li></ul><span style="font-family:Courier New;">X-Robots-Tag: noarchive<br />X-Robots-Tag: unavailable_after: 23 Jul 2007 15:00:00 PST</span><br /><br />Our goal for these features is to provide more flexibility for indexing and inclusion in Google's search results. We hope you enjoy using them. <span itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://plus.google.com/116899029375914044550' itemprop='url'/> </span> </script> <noscript> <span class="byline-author">Posted by Dan Crow, Product Manager</span><br /><br />This is the third and last in my series of blog posts about the Robots Exclusion Protocol (REP). In the <a href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2007/01/controlling-how-search-engines-access.html">first post</a>, I introduced <span style="font-family:Courier New;">robots.txt</span> and the robots <span style="font-family:Courier New;">META</span> tags, giving an overview of when to use them. In the <a title="second post" href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2007/02/robots-exclusion-protocol.html">second post</a>, I shared some examples of what you can do with the REP. Today, I'll introduce two new features that we have recently added to the protocol.<br /><br />As a product manager, I'm always talking to content providers to learn about your needs for REP. We are constantly looking for ways to improve the control you have over how your content is indexed. These new features will give you flexible and convenient ways to improve the detailed control you have with Google.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Tell us if a page is going to expire</span><br />Sometimes you know in advance that a page is going to expire in the future. Maybe you have a temporary page that will be removed at the end of the month. Perhaps some pages are available free for a week, but after that you put them into an archive that users pay to access. In these cases, you want the page to show in Google search results until it expires, then have it removed: you don't want users getting frustrated when they find a page in the results but can't access it on your site.<br /><br />We have introduced a new <span style="font-family:Courier New;">META</span> tag that allows you to tell us when a page should be removed from the main Google web search results: the aptly named <span style="font-family:Courier New;">unavailable_after</span> tag. This one follows a similar syntax to other REP <span style="font-family:Courier New;">META</span> tags. For example, to specify that an HTML page should be removed from the search results after 3pm Eastern Standard Time on 25th August 2007, simply add the following tag to the first <span style="font-family:Courier New;"></span> section of the page:<br /><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;"><META NAME="GOOGLEBOT" CONTENT="unavailable_after: 25-Aug-2007 15:00:00 EST"></span><br /><br />The date and time is specified in the <a title="RFC 850 format" href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc0850.txt">RFC 850 format</a>.<br /><br />This information is treated as a removal request: it will take about a day after the removal date passes for the page to disappear from the search results.

While you may have previously heard about our <a href="//www.google.com/educators/index.html">offerings for K-12 teachers</a>, this new program is focused on CS topics at the university level, and lets us share the knowledge we've built up around things like distributed systems and AJAX programming. It's designed for university faculty to learn about new computer science topics and include them in their courses, as well as to help curious students learn on their own.<br /><br />Right now, Google Code for Educators offers materials for AJAX web programming, distributed systems and parallel programming, and web security. The site includes slides, programming labs, problem sets, background tutorials and videos. We're eager to provide more content areas and also more iterations for existing topic areas. To allow for liberal reuse and remixing, most sample course content on Code EDU is available under a <a href="http://creativecommons.org/">Creative Commons</a> license.

Though the technology exists today to provide access on a global scale, often we have learned technology isn't the problem. In this context, we have worked hard to advance a set of principles that will make Internet access for all a priority.<br /><br />For instance, we wrote <a href="http://googlepublicpolicy.blogspot.com/2007/07/promise-of-open-platforms-in-upcoming.html" title="last week">last week</a> on our Public Policy Blog about Google's interest in promoting competition in the broadband market here in the U.S., to help ensure that as many Americans as possible can access the Internet. However, it takes more than just ideas and rhetoric if you want to help bring the Internet to everyone.<br /><br />So today, we're putting consumers' interests first, and putting our money where our principles are -- to the tune of $4.6 billion. Let me explain.<br /><br />In the U.S., wireless spectrum for mobile phones and data is controlled by a small group of companies, leaving consumers with very few service providers from which to choose. With that in mind, last week, as the federal government prepares for what is arguably its most significant auction of wireless spectrum in history, we <a href="http://services.google.com/blog_resources/ex_part_via_efiling.pdf" title="urged">urged</a> the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to adopt rules to make sure that regardless of who wins the spectrum at auction, consumers' interests are the top priority. Specifically, we encouraged the FCC to require the adoption of four types of "open" platforms as part of the auction:<br /><ul><li> <span style="font-weight: bold;">Open applications</span>: consumers should be able to download and utilize any software applications, content, or services they desire;<br /> </li><li> <span style="font-weight: bold;">Open devices</span>: consumers should be able to utilize their handheld communications device with whatever wireless network they prefer;<br /> </li><li> <span style="font-weight: bold;">Open services</span>: third parties (resellers) should be able to acquire wireless services from a 700 MHz licensee on a wholesale basis, based on reasonably nondiscriminatory commercial terms; and<br /> </li><li> <span style="font-weight: bold;">Open networks</span>: third parties (like Internet service providers) should be able to interconnect at any technically feasible point in a 700 MHz licensee's wireless network.<br /> </li></ul>As <a href="http://www.publicknowledge.org/node/1104" title="numerous public interest organizations">numerous public interest organizations</a> noted earlier this week, all four of these conditions adopted together would promote a spirit of openness, and could spur additional forms of competition from web-based entities, such as software applications providers, content providers, handset makers, and ISPs. The big winners? Consumers. As choices increase, prices come down and more Americans have access to the Net.<br /><br />The FCC is currently considering draft rules for the auction, and the reports we've heard are that those rules include some -- but not all four -- of the openness conditions that we and consumer groups support. While any embrace of open platforms is welcome, only if the FCC adopts all four principles will we see the genuinely competitive marketplace that Americans deserve. In particular, guaranteeing open services and open networks would ensure that entrepreneurs starting new networks and services will have a fair shot at success, in turn giving consumers a wider choice of broadband providers.<br /><br />There are some who have claimed that embracing these principles and putting American consumers first might somehow devalue this spectrum. As much as we don't believe this to be the case, actions speak louder than words. That's why our CEO Eric Schmidt today sent a <a title="letter to FCC Chairman Kevin Martin" href="http://services.google.com/blog_resources/Google_Ex_Parte_Letter_Signed.pdf">letter to FCC Chairman Kevin Martin</a>, saying that, should the FCC adopt all four license conditions requested above, Google intends to commit at least $4.6 billion to bidding for spectrum in the upcoming 700 Mhz auction.<br /><br />Why $4.6 billion? While we think that a robust and competitive auction based on these four principles will likely produce much higher bids, and we are eager to see a diverse set of bidders competing, $4.6 billion is the reserve price that FCC has proposed for the auction. With any concerns about revenue to the U.S. Treasury being satisfied, we hope the FCC can return its attention to adopting openness principles for the benefit of consumers.<br /><br />In the meantime, thank you to those who have reached out to help with our efforts. It feels good to see how many of you support true competition for the benefit of consumers and we look forward to hearing from even more of you in the days to come.<br /><br />For now, and for all of us, the issue is simple: this is one of the best opportunities we will have to bring the Internet to all Americans.

As a result, businesspeople often ask us why they can't use Google to power search on their sites.<br /><br />Today we've released <a href="//google.com/enterprise/csbe" title="http://google.com/enterprise/csbe">Custom Search Business Edition</a> (CSBE) to do just that. CSBE is a hosted site search solution that provides Google-quality results for your website. It's fast, relevant, reliable, and flexible, so that users can quickly find what they're looking for through search results customized and integrated into your business website.<br /><br />CSBE builds on the Google <a href="//google.com/coop/cse/" title="http://google.com/coop/cse/">Custom Search Engine</a>, a hosted search solution we introduced last October that allows organizations to create a search engine and search results that are tailored to their point of view. All well and good, but businesses have asked us for greater flexibility and support -- and we're addressing these needs with CSBE. Businesses that want further control over results presentation and integration with their website can obtain results through XML. Now those of you with business sites have the option to turn off ads and have further control over branding. In addition, CSBE provides options for email and phone support. The pricing starts at $100 per year for searching up to 5,000 pages.<br /><br />This offering should be a great help to the millions of businesses that have a web presence but don't offer users any way to search the site. Instead of being left on their own to navigate content, visitors to CSBE-enabled sites will be able to navigate through search results without ever leaving the site. We hope an improved customer search experience will translate into more referrals, more opportunities for e-commerce, and more satisfied online customers for these businesses.<a href="//google.com/enterprise/csbe">Here's more about CSBE</a>. <span itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://plus.google.com/116899029375914044550' itemprop='url'/> </span> </script> <noscript> <span class="byline-author">Posted by </span>Nitin Mangtani, Product Manager, Enterprise Search and Rajat Mukherjee, Group Product Manager, Search<br /><br />Businesses spend a lot of effort and energy creating and promoting great websites for their products and services, but quality search is often missing.

How long should a web site "remember" cookie information in its logs after a user's visit? And when should a cookie expire on your computer? Cookie privacy is both a server and a client issue.<br /><br />On the server side, we <a href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2007/03/taking-steps-to-further-improve-our.html">recently announced</a> that we will anonymize our search server logs — including IP addresses and cookie ID numbers — after 18 months.<br /><br />Now, we're asking the question about cookie lifetime: when should a cookie expire on your computer? For background: a <a href="//www.google.com/privacy_faq.html#cookie">cookie</a> is a very small file which gets stored on your computer All search engines and most websites use cookies. Why? Cookies remind us of your preferences from the last time you visited our site. For example, Google uses our so-called "PREF cookie" to remember our users’ basic preferences, such as the fact that a user wants search results in English, no more than 10 results on a given page, or a SafeSearch setting to filter out explicit sexual content. When we originally designed the PREF cookie, we set the expiration far into the future — in 2038, to be exact — because the primary purpose of the cookie was to preserve preferences, not to let them be forgotten. We were mindful of the fact that users can always go to their browsers to change their cookie management settings, e.g. to delete all cookies, delete specific cookies, or accept certain types of cookies (like first-party cookies) but reject others (like third-party cookies).<br /><br />After listening to feedback from our users and from privacy advocates, we've concluded that it would be a good thing for privacy to significantly shorten the lifetime of our cookies — as long as we could find a way to do so without artificially forcing users to re-enter their basic preferences at arbitrary points in time. And this is why we’re announcing a new cookie policy.<br /><br />In the coming months, Google will start issuing our users cookies that will be set to auto-expire after 2 years, while auto-renewing the cookies of active users during this time period. In other words, users who do not return to Google will have their cookies auto-expire after 2 years. Regular Google users will have their cookies auto-renew, so that their preferences are not lost. And, as always, all users will still be able to control their cookies at any time via their browsers.<br /><br />Together, these steps — logs anonymization and cookie lifetime reduction — are part of our ongoing plan to continue innovating in the area of privacy to protect our users. <span itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://plus.google.com/116899029375914044550' itemprop='url'/> </span> </script> <noscript> <span class="byline-author">Posted by Peter Fleischer, Global Privacy Counsel</span><br /><br />We are committed to an ongoing process to improve our privacy practices, and have recently taken a closer look at the question of cookie privacy.

And, as always, all users will still be able to control their cookies at any time via their browsers.<br /><br />Together, these steps — logs anonymization and cookie lifetime reduction — are part of our ongoing plan to continue innovating in the area of privacy to protect our users. <span itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://plus.google.com/116899029375914044550' itemprop='url'/> </span> </noscript> </div> </div> <div class='share'> <span class='gplus-share social-wrapper' data-href='https://plus.google.com/share?url=https://googleblog.blogspot.com/2007/07/cookies-expiring-sooner-to-improve.html'> <img alt='Share on Google+' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/branding/google_plus/2x/ic_w_post_gplus_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='twitter-custom social-wrapper' data-href='http://twitter.com/share?text=Official Google Blog:Cookies: expiring sooner to improve privacy&url=https://googleblog.blogspot.com/2007/07/cookies-expiring-sooner-to-improve.html&via=google'> <img alt='Share on Twitter' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_twitter_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='fb-custom social-wrapper' data-href='https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://googleblog.blogspot.com/2007/07/cookies-expiring-sooner-to-improve.html'> <img alt='Share on Facebook' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_facebook_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='cmt_iframe_holder' data-href='https://googleblog.blogspot.com/2007/07/cookies-expiring-sooner-to-improve.html' data-viewtype='FILTERED_POSTMOD'></div> <a href='https://plus.google.com/112374322230920073195' rel='author' style='display:none;'> Google </a> <div class='label-footer'> <span class='labels-caption'> Labels: </span> <span class='labels'> <a class='label' href='https://googleblog.blogspot.com/search/label/policy%20and%20issues' rel='tag'> policy and issues </a> , <a class='label' href='https://googleblog.blogspot.com/search/label/privacy' rel='tag'> privacy </a> </span> </div> </div> </div> <div class='post' data-id='5210493138178987897' itemscope='' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <h2 class='title' itemprop='name'> <a href='https://googleblog.blogspot.com/2007/07/nonprofits-mix-it-up-with-google-apps.html' itemprop='url' title='Nonprofits mix it up with Google Apps'> Nonprofits mix it up with Google Apps </a> </h2> <div class='post-header'> <div class='published'> <span class='publishdate' itemprop='datePublished'> July 12, 2007 </span> </div> </div> <div class='post-body'> <div class='post-content' itemprop='articleBody'> <script type='text/template'> <span class="byline-author">Posted by Matthew Glotzbach, Product Director, Google Enterprise<span><br /><br />Tonight I attended a social mixer co-hosted by Google and the <a href="http://www.nten.org/" target="_blank">Nonprofit Technology Network</a> (NTEN), a nationwide membership organization of several thousand nonprofit technology professionals who want to help nonprofits use technology more effectively.<br /><br />Not only did the event offer DJ Hey Man! -- Darian Rodriguez Heyman, Executive Director of the <a href="http://www.craigslistfoundation.org/">Craigslist Foundation</a> -- the opportunity to show off his skills as a DJ, but it brought together nearly 150 members of nonprofits to hear such speakers as Katrin Verclas of NTEN, and Ami Dar of <a href="http://www.idealist.org/">Idealist.org</a>, plus Camron Assadi, Partnerships Officer for <a href="http://www.mercycorps.org/">Mercy Corps</a>, and Daniel Heath, Network Administrator for the <a href="http://www.ebcrp.org/">East Bay Community Recovery Project</a>, discuss ways in which nonprofits can take advantage of the latest technology trends to support their programs, and their <a href="//www.google.com/a/help/intl/en/admins/customers.html#gov">experiences with Google Apps</a>.<br /><br />The gathering also gave us the chance to announce that we're extending the Google Apps Education Edition to registered nonprofits in the U.S. The idea for this program extension emerged from conversations we had with local nonprofits.

We are committed to finding accessibility solutions that make our services work better for everyone who visits.<br /><br />Here's a list of our accessibility-related services and a few solutions to some accessibility challenges. <a title="http://www.google.com" href="//www.google.com/"><br /></a></p><ul><li><a title="http://www.google.com" href="//www.google.com/">Web Search</a>: Result pages include headers to delineate logical sections.<a title="http://labs.google.com/accessible" href="http://labs.google.com/accessible"><br /></a></li><li><a title="http://labs.google.com/accessible" href="http://labs.google.com/accessible">Accessible Search</a>: Promotes results that are accessible.<a title="http://books.google.com/books" href="http://books.google.com/books"><br /></a></li><li><a title="http://books.google.com/books" href="http://books.google.com/books">Book Search</a>: Full-text access to public-domain works.<a title="http://mail.google.com/mail/h/" href="http://mail.google.com/mail/h/"><br /></a></li><li><a title="http://mail.google.com/mail/h/" href="http://mail.google.com/mail/h/">Gmail</a>: A simple yet functional HTML mode that works well with screenreaders.<a title="http://mail.google.com/mail/x/" href="http://mail.google.com/mail/x/"><br /></a></li><li><a title="http://mail.google.com/mail/x/" href="http://mail.google.com/mail/x/">Gmail Mobile</a>: A lightweight user interface that is also speech-friendly.<a title="http://maps.google.com/?output=html" href="//maps.google.com/?output=html"><br /></a></li><li><a title="http://maps.google.com/?output=html" href="//maps.google.com/?output=html">Google Maps</a>: Easy-to-use textual directions.<a title="https://www.google.com/calendar/m?output=xhtml" href="https://www.google.com/calendar/m?output=xhtml"><br /></a></li><li><a title="https://www.google.com/calendar/m?output=xhtml" href="https://www.google.com/calendar/m?output=xhtml">Calendar</a>: A functional, yet speech-friendly user interface.<a title="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2006/11/audio-captchas-when-visual-images-are.html" href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2006/11/audio-captchas-when-visual-images-are.html"><br /></a></li><li><a title="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2006/11/audio-captchas-when-visual-images-are.html" href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2006/11/audio-captchas-when-visual-images-are.html">Audio Captchas</a>: All services that use Google Accounts provide an audio alternative for the visual challenge-response tests that are used to distinguish humans from machines.<a title="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2006/11/viewing-web-through-mobile-lens.html" href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2006/11/viewing-web-through-mobile-lens.html"><br /></a></li><li><a title="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2006/11/viewing-web-through-mobile-lens.html" href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2006/11/viewing-web-through-mobile-lens.html">Mobile Transcoder</a>: A <i>mobile lens</i> for viewing the web that produces accessible views.<a title="http://video.google.com/videocaptioned" href="http://video.google.com/videocaptioned"><br /></a></li><li><a title="http://video.google.com/videocaptioned" href="http://video.google.com/videocaptioned">Google Video</a>: Allows uploaded videos to contain captions/subtitles in multiple languages for viewers who are hearing-impaired or unfamiliar with the original language.<a title="http://www.jabber.org/software/clients.shtml" href="http://www.jabber.org/software/clients.shtml"><br /></a></li><li><a title="http://www.jabber.org/software/clients.shtml" href="http://www.jabber.org/software/clients.shtml">Google Talk</a>: IM clients inside a web browser can pose accessibility challenges, but the use of the open Jabber API means that Google users can choose from a variety of Jabber clients, many of which work well with adaptive technologies.<a title="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2007/02/web-apis-web-mashups-and-accessibility.html" href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2007/02/web-apis-web-mashups-and-accessibility.html"><br /></a></li><li><a title="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2007/02/web-apis-web-mashups-and-accessibility.html" href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2007/02/web-apis-web-mashups-and-accessibility.html">Web APIs</a>: Many Google services offer high-level web APIs that aid in authoring mashups; this provides a means for creating highly customized accessible views.</li><li><a href="http://labs.google.com/goog411/">1-800-GOOG-411</a>: Here's an exception to the rule that we deliver most things through a web browser.

(Just say "text message".)</li></ul>Finally, many Google services such as <a title="http://scholar.google.com" href="http://scholar.google.com/">Google Scholar</a>, <a title="http://news.google.com" href="http://news.google.com/">Google News</a>, <a title="http://www.blogger.com" href="//www.blogger.com/">Blogger</a> and <a title="http://www.google.com/products" href="//www.google.com/products">Google Product Search</a> work out of the box. While today's screenreaders can hit some bumps on the road when using more advanced features in these products, these web interfaces degrade gracefully to provide a functional interface. <p>If any of this interests you, we invite you to participate in our <a title="http://groups.google.com/group/accessible/" href="http://groups.google.com/group/accessible/">user community</a>. Please tell us what works well, share your own tips on using Google services, and make sure to tell us what could be made even better.</p><p><span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">Update: </span>Added info on 1-800-GOOG-411.<br /></p> <p class="author"> <a title="mailto:raman@google.com" href="mailto:raman@google.com"><raman@google.com></raman@google.com></a> </p> <p class="date"><br /></p> <span itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://plus.google.com/116899029375914044550' itemprop='url'/> </span> </noscript> </div> </div> <div class='share'> <span class='gplus-share social-wrapper' data-href='https://plus.google.com/share?url=https://googleblog.blogspot.com/2007/07/overview-of-our-accessible-services.html'> <img alt='Share on Google+' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/branding/google_plus/2x/ic_w_post_gplus_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='twitter-custom social-wrapper' data-href='http://twitter.com/share?text=Official Google Blog:Overview of our accessible services&url=https://googleblog.blogspot.com/2007/07/overview-of-our-accessible-services.html&via=google'> <img alt='Share on Twitter' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_twitter_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='fb-custom social-wrapper' data-href='https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://googleblog.blogspot.com/2007/07/overview-of-our-accessible-services.html'> <img alt='Share on Facebook' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_facebook_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='cmt_iframe_holder' data-href='https://googleblog.blogspot.com/2007/07/overview-of-our-accessible-services.html' data-viewtype='FILTERED_POSTMOD'></div> <a href='https://plus.google.com/112374322230920073195' rel='author' style='display:none;'> Google </a> <div class='label-footer'> <span class='labels-caption'> Labels: </span> <span class='labels'> <a class='label' href='https://googleblog.blogspot.com/search/label/accessibility' rel='tag'> accessibility </a> </span> </div> </div> </div> <div class='post' data-id='4973743195697210033' itemscope='' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <h2 class='title' itemprop='name'> <a href='https://googleblog.blogspot.com/2007/07/bloggin-down-under.html' itemprop='url' title='Bloggin' down under'> Bloggin' down under </a> </h2> <div class='post-header'> <div class='published'> <span class='publishdate' itemprop='datePublished'> July 9, 2007 </span> </div> </div> <div class='post-body'> <div class='post-content' itemprop='articleBody'> <script type='text/template'> <span class="byline-author">Posted by Christine Knight, Maximizer Associate, Google Australia</span><br /> <br /> To our international friends, Australia can have a rep for Crocodile Dundee jokes, poisonous animals and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pie_floater">meat pies with mushy peas</a>.

Today's Book Search launch is an excellent example of how technology is truly democratizing access to the world's information.<br /><br />If you have feedback about Google's accessibility services, <a href="http://groups.google.com/group/accessible/">join our group</a> to share tips on what works well and what could be made better. <span itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://plus.google.com/116899029375914044550' itemprop='url'/> </span> </noscript> </div> </div> <div class='share'> <span class='gplus-share social-wrapper' data-href='https://plus.google.com/share?url=https://googleblog.blogspot.com/2007/07/ever-more-books-to-read.html'> <img alt='Share on Google+' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/branding/google_plus/2x/ic_w_post_gplus_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='twitter-custom social-wrapper' data-href='http://twitter.com/share?text=Official Google Blog:Ever more books to read&url=https://googleblog.blogspot.com/2007/07/ever-more-books-to-read.html&via=google'> <img alt='Share on Twitter' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_twitter_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='fb-custom social-wrapper' data-href='https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://googleblog.blogspot.com/2007/07/ever-more-books-to-read.html'> <img alt='Share on Facebook' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_facebook_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='cmt_iframe_holder' data-href='https://googleblog.blogspot.com/2007/07/ever-more-books-to-read.html' data-viewtype='FILTERED_POSTMOD'></div> <a href='https://plus.google.com/112374322230920073195' rel='author' style='display:none;'> Google </a> <div class='label-footer'> <span class='labels-caption'> Labels: </span> <span class='labels'> <a class='label' href='https://googleblog.blogspot.com/search/label/accessibility' rel='tag'> accessibility </a> , <a class='label' href='https://googleblog.blogspot.com/search/label/books%20%2B%20book%20search' rel='tag'> books + book search </a> , <a class='label' href='https://googleblog.blogspot.com/search/label/search' rel='tag'> search </a> </span> </div> </div> </div> <div class='post' data-id='2656123470258737278' itemscope='' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <h2 class='title' itemprop='name'> <a href='https://googleblog.blogspot.com/2007/07/all-aboard.html' itemprop='url' title='All aboard'> All aboard </a> </h2> <div class='post-header'> <div class='published'> <span class='publishdate' itemprop='datePublished'> July 2, 2007 </span> </div> </div> <div class='post-body'> <div class='post-content' itemprop='articleBody'> <script type='text/template'> <span class="byline-author">Posted by Wesley Chan, Product Manager</span><br /><br />We're pleased to announce that we have acquired <a href="http://www.grandcentral.com/">GrandCentral Communications</a>, a company that provides services for managing your voice communications. GrandCentral is an innovative service that lets users integrate all of their existing phone numbers and voice mailboxes into one account, which can be accessed from the web. We think GrandCentral's technology fits well into Google's efforts to provide services that enhance the collaborative exchange of information between our users. <br /><br />GrandCentral offers many features that complement the phone services you already use. If you have multiple phone numbers (e.g., home, work, cell), you get one phone number that you can set to ring all, some, or none of your phones, based on who's calling. This way, your phone number is tied to you, and not your location or job. The service also gives you one central voice mailbox. You can listen to your voicemails online or from any phone, forward them to anybody, add the caller to your address book, block a caller as spam, and a lot more. You can even listen in on voicemail messages from your phone while they are being recorded, or switch a call from your cell phone to your desk phone and back again. All in all, you'll have a lot more control over your phones.<br /> <br />We're really excited to welcome the GrandCentral team to Google. While we're moving their technology over to Google's network, a limited number of invitations will be available to register for a GrandCentral beta account. If you have a U.S. telephone number, you can sign up for an invitation at <a href="http://www.grandcentral.com/">www.grandcentral.com</a>.

Take for example the <a href="http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2007/07/01/google-takes-on-michael-moore">reaction</a> we've just seen to an item on our new health advertising blog. Frankly, we were surprised by the pickup, but perhaps we shouldn't have been. We've been <a href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2007/06/this-blogs-mo.html">proponents of corporate blogging</a> for some time, despite the significant communication challenges that obviously arise from having many voices from all parts of our company speak publicly through blog posts. In this case, the blog criticized Michael Moore's new film "Sicko" to suggest how health care companies might use our ad programs when they face controversy. Our internal review of the piece before publication failed to recognize that readers would -- properly, but incorrectly -- impute the criticisms as reflecting Google's official position. We blew it.<br /><br />In fact, Google does share many of the concerns that Mr. Moore expresses about the cost and availability of health care in America. Indeed, we think these issues are sufficiently important that we invited our employees to attend his film (nearly 1,000 people did so). We believe that it will fall to many entities -- businesses, government, educational institutions, individuals -- to work together to solve the current system's shortcomings. This is one reason we're deploying our technology and our expertise with the hope of improving health system information for everyone who is or will become a patient.
