And if you're thinking about starting a search company, maybe you'd like to have a closer look at the notes accompanying the presentation:

"Encourage our large user base to actively contribute metadata that leads to better search results
Wiki of search: empower users/experts to improve search results in their domains of expertise — create a million verticals
Effectively integrate user feedback (ratings, comments, tags) into search"

"[T]he online copy of your data will become your Golden Copy and your local-machine copy serves more like a cache."

"Worlds best memory-based software architecture
Making programming easy and reliable on this new model
Making execution as reliable as storage is today
Making large scale computation [...] very easy
Automatic and market-based machine allocation with real economics"

"Get all the worlds information, not just some"
