available book google makes search tailers
Google now offers a book search API which allows other sites to embed book previews, query for certain book information, or just link to books at Book Search (the former Google Print). In Google’s blog post announcing this, Google mentions they already partnered with several online book sites who use their widget-style preview functionality – like this BooksaMillion.com page which shows a “Google preview” button. Clicking the button opens a box which lets you page through parts of the book, search, and zoom.

It's not that Google has suddenly turned socialist. It's just that the company has finally realized that it's easier to make a profit when you play nicely with your partners than when you simply steamroll over them. The search giant announced it would be paying out $125 million to settle a three-year-old copyright infringement suit with authors and publishers over its Google Book Search program. The deal is good for authors and publishers, who get $45 million right upfront, a new copyright holders registry, and an agreement to share the proceeds from future Book Search revenue. But it also turns out to be good for Google, since it opens the program to far more texts and it keeps Book Search's revenue-generating capabilities intact. The deal is a win-win and a nice blueprint for Google to follow in its other high-profile copyright case--Vi

Today's the day Android strutted its stuff to the world. Is Android the game-changer for the SmartPhone industry, a real contender to the iPhone or just another cell phone OS? It's definitely not just another cell phone OS, as evidenced by all the attention around today's launch. Google has technology that other phones use but Google Android will exploit. Google search, of course is the 800-pound gorilla in search. Add Google maps (including a compass feature Google demonstrated in the T-Mobile [HTC] G1 phone), Google Webkit and the Chrome Web browser (a Chrome Lite comes on Android), Google Talk, YouTube, Google Apps, and so forth. This has allowed Google to layer in a single sign-on for all Google apps, and Android syncs data with your Google account for contacts, calendar, chat and likely other applications in the future.

There once was a time when Google search tried to be a neutral bystander, watching the web without getting too actively involved. There once was a time when Google instructed webmasters to serve their Googlebot the same thing served to a site’s human users. Now, Google is officially telling webmasters they can serve one thing to people coming from Google web search, and another thing to people coming from elsewhere. Think of it as Google now offering publishers to hand Google a special key to the publisher’s content. Google calls this “first click free” and they say they do this in order “to help users find and access content that may require registration or a subscription”, to “include highly relevant content in Google’s search index” and to “to provide a promotion and discovery opportunity for publishers with restric

How much has it cost Google (NSDQ: GOOG) to scan hundreds of thousands of books and make them available via its Google Book Search? At least $125 million. That’s how much the search giant has paid to settle a long-standing class action lawsuit with the Authors Guild and the Association of American Publishers (representing publishers like McGraw-Hill (NYSE: MHP) and the Penguin Group). The funds will be used to set up a Book Rights Registry that will let U.S. copyright holders register their works so that they can get a cut of any resulting online retail and ad sales. MarketWatch’s Therese Poletti wonders if the settlement lines Google up as a future Amazon.com competitor, or at least, a contractor—as Google’s scanned books could wind up as part of Kindle’s growing library.

Borders has enabled Google Preview on their site. Google Preview, unveiled in September, is a widget-like tool that allows retailers or anyone handy with Web site code to embed a preview of 20% of any book in Google’s database onto their site. Borders joins Books-A-Million and the U.K. retailer Blackwell Bookshop in using the service. The deal between Google and its retail partners stipulates that retailers will enable Google Preview for any book being sold that is also available in Google’s database, in exchange for an enhanced version of the Preview software. The big advantage for retailers of Google Preview is that it allows consumers to brows books scanned by Google without leaving the retailer’s Web site. Click the “Google Preview” button beneath the jacket art on Borders.

Before anything, let's just clear up what's meant by a search engine ranking? When an individual uses a search service like Google, Yahoo, MSN or many of the numerous smaller search services, they type in a question, or a request for information - this is called a 'search query'. When they enter that 'query' they are then presented by a whole list of results that search service has decided in their mysterious way are relevant search results to the query you want information on. This list of search results is often termed Organic Search Results. These are different to the Sponsored Search Results that often appear down the right hand margin of the search results page, and sometimes can appear at the top of the page shaded in a slightly different background colour.

Google is set to make a new application available to the iPhone that will allow users to conduct searches by speaking their queries into the handset rather than typing them in. Questions asked are converted into digital files and sent to Google's servers for processing. Once processed, the text is sent to Google's regular search servers and the search results are then returned to the iPhone. It will also use GPS information to return results that are relevant to the user's location. Google competitors Microsoft and Yahoo already offer similar services via their TellMe and oneSearch applications. The application will be available through the iPhone Apps Store.
