Perfect for that person with everything: Order 'The Search
Yup, it makes the perfect gift for that officemate or colleague who you thought had everything....including you! If you order here, I promise to sign it, assuming we can figure out the shipping...
You can also buy the audio version here.
Check my book page for more info.

Picked up the book at Borders this afternoon. About 30% through it already. It's excellent. Very detailed description of the origins and goals of Google. Very solid understanding of what Google does, what it is about, and its significance for the marketplace. I'll finish the book late this afternoon and write a longer review.
I'm probably going to read this book, and not yours. I'm a huge fan of your blog and would prefer to read 'The Search'. I just don't have time.
I noticed that 'The Google Story' has an audio version that I can listen to in the car. I'd much spend that money on your book, but there's no audio version. So release one! And is there one coming soon? If so I'll wait for it.
Yes there will be an audio version very soon. I recorded it myself...
Will it be on audible.com?
i think that the update by audible.com comes in 2-3 month ... this is a good idea if you want to fast to get rich *g*
back to topic... it was only a question of time, if anybody write a "Google - How it works" Book :)
