Eric Schmidt, CEO de Google :

* Five years from now the internet will be dominated by Chinese-language content.
* Today’s teenagers are the model of how the web will work in five years – they jump from app to app to app seamlessly.
* Five years is a factor of ten in Moore’s Law, meaning that computers will be capable of far more by that time than they are today.
* Within five years there will be broadband well above 100MB in performance – and distribution distinctions between TV, radio and the web will go away.
* « We’re starting to make signifigant money off of Youtube », content will move towards more video.
* « Real time information is just as valuable as all the other information, we want it included in our search results. »
* There are many companies beyond Twitter and Facebook doing real time.
* « We can index real-time info now – but how do we rank it? »
* It’s because of this fundamental shift towards user-generated information that people will listen more to other people than to traditional sources. Learning how to rank that « is the great challenge of the age. » Schmidt believes Google can solve that problem.
