Apple and Facebook are not dangerous for search - Eric Schmidt

Google CEO Eric Schmidt has denied any thoughts that Apple and Facebook could somehow change or adversely affect the US search industry.

During the one-hour briefing by Google officials in the Sun Valley (Sun Valley) in Idaho, including not only Schmidt, but also the company's founders Sergey Brin and Larry Page, the fact that “Internet users registered on Facebook, make more Google search queries, compared to those who are not registered there. "

However, none of the three above-mentioned persons answered questions regarding the creation of their own social network, Google Me, rumors about which appeared not so long ago.

Basically, of course, topics were raised for the corporation's further plans, the growing competition and the situation in China, where the government renewed the annual license for Google’s activities outside of Hong Kong.

It seemed to me a funny moment that despite the invitation of Steve Jobs to the conference, he did not appear there. Google and Apple are becoming increasingly close competitors in recent years, whose interests in the field of mobile communications are converging. For this reason, last year, Eric Schmidt left the chair on the board of directors of the apple company.

Despite some tensions between the two companies, Schmidt noted that no one is trying to quarrel, and the two giants remain partners in many market areas. Especially noted was the fact that the mobile market is “big enough for both platforms”, like Google Android, and Apple iPhone.
