Something about Google's philosophy that caught my attention is their policy on always trying to serve the users and focusing only on that. The corporation believes that if they've focused on providing the best user experience possible, this will make the perfect search engine. Rather than pursuing after their own personal interests and goals, they make sure that everything they do serves you and the other users. You can see this philosophy in many other corporations and advertisements. Everything consumeristic shouts out: "We're here to serve you!" "Made just for you." And if things aren't going well, they don't change their products based on their preferences, but rather, they try to figure out why the consumers aren't liking it and try to change the products based on the consumers' preferences. After all, why care about your pride of preferences when the pride of your finances are on the line? I took AP Government in my senior year of high school and I learned a lot about how politicians campaign and the majority of their slogans are something to deal with how they're going to change the people's lives for the better. It's never "Oh, when I'm president I will do such and such because that'll make me earn a lot of money and that'll get me fame and popularity, etc." Every corporation has to come off being selfless and focused on the consumer because that is what sells. For example, since people these days seem so busy and never have enough time to do anything, Google is considerate and makes the search engine to be extremely fast and efficient. Since people sometimes need information at the most random time and place, Google has become incredibly mobile. Google's philosophy will allow more consumers to be more dependent on GOogle's search engine because it is apparently served entirely for the purposes of the consumer.
