[Sohu it news] on June 14, a Google Engineer recently criticized the company and called the new social network Google + A "Sad post-mortem"
Afterthought )".
Google software engineer Steve yenge (Steve
Yegge) published an article on Tuesday evening, and later the article was revoked. Even so, his words still echo on the Internet.
Steve yöge's article apparently only intended to be shared with insiders, but was made public by mistake. The article talked about my work on Amazon and the Development of Google +. The article focuses on Amazon's terrorist work. He believes that Amazon's fight for the party is serious. The industry is interested in his views on Google +. Steve yöge believes that Google does not understand what the platform is, and this does not threaten the company in the long run.
Google +: self-help and rapid response
Steve yöge commented in his article: "Google + is a result of short-term thinking and developed based on a wrong understanding: facebook is successful because it has built a good product. But this is not the reason for Facebook's success. The reason for Facebook's success is that they allow others to help and build massive products. Facebook is different for everyone. Some people spend their time on the gang war and some people on the farm. There are hundreds or thousands of things that can suck on different prime times, so for everyone, there must be something there ."
Steve yöge, Amazon and its founder, didn't say anything about it. However, he still believes that, unlike Google, Bezos does not understand that simply developing interesting products is not enough, there is also a platform to create products.
Apart from Amazon, Facebook, and Microsoft, Steve yenge said: "I am part of their culture throughout the generation. You don't eat human food on your own, but give it to developers. This is only a short-term success, killing the long-term value of the platform. Platforms should be considered in the long run ."
Google + is a "miserable"
Steve yöge wrote in his article: "Google + is a miserable post-mortem. At the time of its launch, there was no API at all. When I checked it back, there was only one poor API request. One of the team came in and told me that everyone was smiling at the time and I asked, 'the API is lost? 'They're a little depressed and said, 'Yes. 'I am kidding, ...... Only by providing APIs can you get the attention of others ."
In the long run, Steve yenge suggested Google stay away from purely product company roles and become a platform player.
Steve yenge said: "The prime rule of the platform is: 'Eat your own dog grain (eat your own dogfood) ', which can be emphasized as 'starting from the platform, then use the platform to do everything '. You can start it later. It is not easy to build a platform. Ask the employees on the Microsoft Office Platform and ask the employees on the Amazon platform. The first step is better than the second step. You cannot cheat, internal programs do not have backdoors, and you cannot obtain the preferred interface. You have to solve this problem from the very beginning. I'm not saying we're late, but the longer we wait, the closer we get ." (Sink)
