the collapse of google is progressing well A little over a year ago, Google CEO Larry Page convened his direct reports, the company’s dozen or so senior vice presidents, for a project that would take up two days a week for a couple of months. About 100 other employees below the SVP rank also participated in the effort, dubbed Google 2.0. The aim was to come up with goals for the company in areas ranging from subscription businesses to location services to developing replacements for traditional passwords. Mr. Page, people close to him say, felt he didn’t have enough control over Google’s product direction. He believed Google’s main teams were too big and wanted better focus and more deliberate resource allocation. “The business was growing super fast, but without his stamp on it,” said one participant. A closer look at Google 2.0 and a handful of other big ideas floated by Mr. Page—including the creation of a second major research lab alongside Google X and building a model airport and city—shows the remarkable scope of his ambitions for a company that still makes most of its money on Web-search advertising.

another sign google plus is dead. http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2014/09/google-nixes-g-requirement-for-gmail-accounts/ The grand unbundling of Google’s G+ social network continues, with Gmail becoming the latest Google service to gain its independence from Google’s campaign of forced integration.

Larry Page wants a Google 2.0 that will build cities and airports, report says The world's got problems and the Google CEO is searching for solutions As if self-driving cars, balloon-carried internet, or the eradication of death weren't ambitious enough projects, Google CEO Larry Page has apparently been working behind the scenes to set up even bolder tasks for his company. The Information reports that Page started up a Google 2.0 project inside the company a year ago to look at the big challenges facing humanity and the ways Google can overcome them. Among the grand-scale plans discussed were Page's desire to build a more efficient airport as well as a model city. To progress these ideas to fruition, the Google chief has also apparently proposed a second research and development lab, called Google Y, to focus on even longer-term programs that the current Google X, which looks to support future technology and is headed up by his close ally Sergey Brin. None of these ambitions seem to be taking commercial considerations into account, at least not at their outset. More realistic and near-term goals have also been under discussion during Google 2.0 meetings, including Page's determination that location tracking should be precise "down to the inches." That would allow people to identify those around them discreetly, as well as providing information to store owners that can help customize what you're presented with as you walk through a shop. Also, just as Apple is doing with Touch ID on the iPhone, Page wants to see some form of biometric security — potentially provided by the sensors embedded in smartwatches — replacing the traditional (and traditionally insecure) written password. It's hardly a surprise to see Google thinking about the future, but the ambition illustrated in this report is strikingly grand and all-encompassing, even for a company as vast as the one Larry Page controls.
