Google's desktop search for beta2 has not yet been seen by Baidu, but according to the consistent follow-up strategy, I believe it is not long before. I am now using Google's desktop search. For a long time, I never wanted to use the MS search at the Start Menu. As a user, I was "Bound.
Why is desktop search required for Internet search?
The first is to strengthen my service brand, that is, "Search". I can not only search for the Internet, but also search for your computer to enhance "no search ". Foreigners are just business minds and will be brands. Chinese people must learn.
Second, transfer users from their competitor Microsoft's site-desktop to their own field and browser. Emphasize browser and Internet look, rather than the traditional desktop image-that is Microsoft's territory. Microsoft is undoubtedly powerful and occupies the largest computer user in the world. But if these users are connected to the Internet, they should choose my Internet service provider, even if they are not on, you can also access my services and logos.
Third, attack your opponent. Desktop Search has always been criticized by Microsoft users, while Google and Baidu search methods quickly and effectively meet users' desktop search requirements. Some people say that Microsoft and Google are not competitors. No, Microsoft occupies a large amount of user and computer resources. If it wants to grow, it can support a share price of $300, sufficient room for growth is required. The battle against the existing "corrupt forces" will sooner or later take place. If you do not attack, you will be waiting for others to take over you. The US-headed Westerners will not talk about the benevolent morality of Song xianggong unless this benevolent morality can change the market image and bring commercial benefits.
Finally, I thought about the personalization of Web2.0. I think if I was Google or I would consider using desktop search as the best personalized tool. I will analyze users' preference information through the index of the entire desktop, and search for Internet information through WebService when users search for local files. For example, if an MP3 file cannot be found, the desktop search will tell me where there are ads on the Internet that can be used to sell iPod. How good is this commercial advertisement? The world is the same, but everyone has personalized needs. Michael Jacob searches for the same keyword, but they actually belong to different groups and need different information. I am not talking about it all now. How does a search engine improve understanding of users' search intentions? Can't the information stored on your computer be used as evidence of your own search intention? The only restriction is privacy legal restrictions, but in China where the legal system is not perfect, it may be that the whiteness does not need to learn the breakthrough point of Google :)
If it is called Web2.0, but it cannot be completely personalized, then this Web2.0 is not complete yet.
How can I worry about the stock rich ?......
