Google Researching Bing's Algorithm

Last week Google CEO Eric Schmidt told FOX Business Network that the arrival of Bing won’t change what Google is doing. "It's not the first entry for Microsoft. They do this about once a year," Schmidt told the Fox Business Network earlier in the week. "I don't think Bing's arrival has changed what we're doing. We are about search, we're about making things enormously successful, by virtue of innovation," said Schmidt adding that Google has a different focus. "Google is about getting all the information and organizing it. Yahoo has a different strategy. We think ultimately Bing will evolve to a different strategy as well."

We highly doubt Google is in a flap over Bing, at least not to the extent portrayed in the piece by the Post. That said, one of Google’s co-founders rolling up his sleeves and playing a major role in a project isn’t something to ignore. Watch this space.
