I'm Feeling Lucky: Confessions of Google Employee 59
When I read a review for I'm Feeling Lucky etc., I was intrigued. Douglas Edwards was hired as a marketing guy for the then small and relatively unknown internet company Google. He describes what life was like at Google in those early days.
Douglas does offer some insights into how Google managed to become the behemoth it is today. However, I did not find this to be a very well written book. There is so much detail, alot of it irrelevant, that my eyes began to glaze over. And I felt like I was reading the text book for the most boring marketing class on earth. I will admit that I never finished the book, so I probably shouldn't be commenting on it. But I was very disappointed in the portion that I did read.
