10 years of Google. Going back to look at some of these early discussion papers is always fun. The quote above feels like Google’s version of the ‘640K outta be enough for anyone’ line (though this time, unlike Gates, Brin & Page actually said it).

Since 2005 I've been a full-time pen-for-hire, bringing words to the pages of APC, Atomic MPC, Australian Macworld, Desktop, Hyper, Rolling Stone, The Sydney Morning Herald, Time Out Sydney as well as online at Gizmodo Australia and Kotaku Australia. I write about all kinds of screen media and new things - new tech, new games, new sites, new ideas. I can't say I update this blog as often as I'd like, but thankfully that's a good sign I'm busy writing words for money elsewhere.
