Google is one of the most well-known search engines that can be found in the whole Internet universe. It can be used to access unlimited amounts of information on any subject. Google Book Search is one of the many tools available in Google. The company takes books and scans them into the Internet so that they may become globally accessible.

The effect of this library-based digitization has on Google's relationships with publishers is that it has endangered their relationship with them. If I was a publisher and Google was making money and I didn't get any profit from it, I would be very upset. If they were gaining success with my books then I should gain something out of it.

Google’s competitors such as Microsoft and Yahoo will most probably respond to this technology by developing similar ones the way the iPod was parodied by other companies. Yahoo and Microsoft do not want to lose their online audience and so will most likely do whatever it takes to keep their audience and probably increase it as well.

Personally, I think that this is a great use of the technology we have at our disposal. Instead of wasting our times playing games, we finally have access to books and other useful information that can be found in the library.
