See the section on online entrepreneurs. Brief comment from the CFO of Yahoo and see the video of the interview with Google's Head of UK Sales (the blonde one who doesn't look very happy) and a Forrester Research analyst.

Interesting to hear the answer to the question "does Google have any competitors?"

Thanks John, that's interesting. Google seem to been quite active in PR over here at the moment, not that we should necessarily read anything into that.

The principal message coming across from the interview seemed to be that Google's focus on performance was more on targeting ads to search queries than targeting the straight search results. Not surprising I suppose, seeing as the ads generate the revenue, but a reminder all the same that Google is as commercially-minded as the rest of us.
