The Scale of Google®

how many search queries does Google® take per day?  A billion?

how much electricity does it consume?

how much storage capacity does it own?

how many streets have been photographed on Google®Earth?

how much private data is gathered by StreetView® cars as they photograph the world's streets?


how much G-mail does it store?

can one Google® answers to these questions?

    Prof. Geoffrey West can predict what happens to Google as he can with any company! Google has a life-cycle like any organism, or like any of the 23,000 companies he studied. Fascinating TED talk.
