For those of us who joined Google from Postini, one of the most exciting possibilities was to learn how to operate at Google scale. As a young company, we were accustomed to moving quickly. But now that we’re here, we’re seeing speed in a whole new dimension: how to quickly make complex technology products accessible and useful to all kinds of businesses. We didn’t understand all the implications of Google’s resources. (Frankly, we still don’t!) But over last couple months the picture has started to come into focus, and now our customers get the benefit of our innovation and scale.

The openness of the Internet is what made Google — and Yahoo! — possible. A good idea that users find useful spreads quickly. Businesses can be created around the idea. Users benefit from constant innovation. It’s what makes the Internet such an exciting place.
So Microsoft’s hostile bid for Yahoo! raises troubling questions. This is about more than simply a financial transaction, one company taking over another. It’s about preserving the underlying principles of the Internet: openness and innovation.

You aren’t likely to find your standard potato battery project at the International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF), a project of the Society for Science & the People. Nor will you see many forced volcano eruptions. You’re more likely to notice the 1,200 students from across the world coming together to share projects like “FDIS: A Fast Frequency Distribution Based Interpolation Search Algorithm” and “Probing for Cancer with Smart shRNA.”
