Part One
Messing with the Magic
Actually was "fucking with the magic". what the Comcast CEO had to say about the ideas Page and Brin had about advertising. A general overview of the founding principals, the situation, their background, the situation c. 1998. Sets tone of Aulettas background and perspective as a MSM literati, distorting a number of things, and missing the extent to which Google always was the dominant SE from c. 1997. Establishes "journalistic" perspective on the scientific and engineering mindset with which it confounds the master capitalist arc of persons and organizations which will be the real thing the book conveys and which he sees as alien and other, the typical "geek" perception.
