ABC News: One-on-One with Bill Gates
Peter Jennings interviewed Bill Gates on ABC News last night. I missed the interview, but just read the online transcript . Pretty interesting article. They talk briefly about competing with Google, but mostly touch on a lot of different topics.
Here's an excerpt:
Well, I have a meeting today with our people doing search. And that's an area where Google has got out in front, does a very good job. We're sort of the David vs. Goliath in that (chuckles) particular battle so we'll have fun talking to them about their progress. I am meeting with our tablet people about the idea of carrying text books around. They'll have just a tablet device that they can call up the material on. That's been a dream for a long time, we're making progress there. So review of the software projects and encouraging them in terms of what they are doing well and telling them who else they need to work with. That's the primary thing on my schedule.
