Whew, time flies. It is my three-week anniversary at Google.
Let me take some notes:
(1) Act, Act, Act
(2) Get down to coding while keeping my eyes open
(3) Evolution V.S. Revolution
(4) Make things happen

"我觉得这个黄色啊什么淫秽信息在网上那个毒害特别大，特别是经过一些像Google这样的链接，那种毒害特别大。就是我一个同学，他以前，就比较好奇这些东西，他就去点击黄色网站，搞得那段时间心神不宁。后来国家打击淫秽黄色网站，他就没上，那段时间好了。后来他发现，通过Google这些用户比较多的搜索引擎可以打开这些网址。然后又进入了这些黄色网站，链接特别多，导致又反复了。"
-- 高也, 焦点访谈采访某大学生
Shame...
G处理的很低调，也表现Kai-fu Lee危机公关的能力。G做了三件事：
Kai-fu深知与党中央直接领导下的CCAV对抗没有前途，并没有直接为自己辩护，相反马上到相关部门认错，交代“犯罪事实”
迅速关闭“关键词建议”功能，被攻击的也是源于此功能
[此条无法确切考证是否是G所为] 发挥“本专业”的搜索优势，人肉出“高也”同学竟然是CCAV的实习生，据此事实，CCAV的报道的“真实性”和所谓“权威性”严重存疑。与此同时，此消息被各网站转载，网民热议。
Kai-fu三点，体现了危机处理的几个要点：
（1）认清形势，不要急于自我辩护，尽量减少事态影响，为自己争取时间
（2）迅速处理事情的源头
（3）分析敌人的论据和材料，找出漏洞和攻击点，准备随时反击
但是Kai-fu深知CCAV是得罪不起的，估计他得到网民的支持后就会迅速息事宁人，毕竟把CCAV搞火了，G在中国的日子不好过。
对比BD在08年的危机，CCAV曝光BD混杂机器搜索结果和广告赞助严重影响搜索结果的公正性和可信度。对于一个搜索引擎来说，致命之伤，不过与此。BD的公关则颇有中国特色，大把砸钱赞助CCAV春晚，既做了广告（第一季BD的份额有显著提高），又收买了CCAV，所谓 “吃人嘴软”， CCAV也就老实了。
如果说G练的是少林大力金刚掌，那BD练得就是任我行的吸星大法，孰胜孰败，也是难测。只是BD练功不可走火入魔，伤了自己。很多国内的企业无法成为国际巨头，恐怕和武学路数有莫大关系。不过也确实难为他们了，什么样的环境长什么样的苗，也是出于无奈。

Just the title, I will write up some stuff when I am done with my defense.

Sad sad sad movie......barely wanted to finish watching it....I guess I would rather watch something stupid and fun the next time...
For a person who is trying to destroy himself, the ending is doomed.
loneliness and acceptance, love and desperation
Wake up, people. Do not be fooled by the true love in illusion, take the real love in life -- acceptance, compassion, care... Stop here, let's not grow this list....
