中文消息來自搜狐IT
據國外媒體報道，在周三一個IT行業大會上，Google首席執行官施密特預言：五年之內，互聯網將再次發生巨變，其中包括中文成為主導語言，网速之快導致各種互聯網信息媒介之間的區別消失。
施密特參加了在奧蘭多舉行的Gartner Symposium/Itxpo大會，共有全美5000多位首席技術官和首席信息官參加。施密特談及互聯網即將發生的一些變化。他表示，中文將成為未來互聯網的主導語言。
施密特說，今天的年輕网民以全新的方式消費網絡信息，他們可以“無縫地”在各種媒體形式之間切換，而音頻、視頻、文本之間的差別將會日漸模糊。由於网速加快，流媒體信息將會增加，用戶原創內容也大量增加，网民將發現他們已經被信息“淹沒”。施密特說，諸如Facebook和Twitter等網站的成功，表明了互聯網這種變化趨勢。
施密特說，互聯網信息膨脹帶來的一個問題是如何組織這些信息，這也是Google面臨的核心挑戰。他甚至誇張地提問：屆時Google怎麼來對一個網民的Twitter短信息進行索引和排序呢？
當天，施密特還表示，Google目前大部分營收來自於面嚮网民的消費市場，企業和商用市場將是Google下一步開挖的目標。
Google CEO: Chinese language will dominate web
Thursday, 22 October 2009 from independent.co.uk
A web where Chinese is the dominant language, and connections are so fast that distinctions between audio, video and text are blurred is perhaps just five years away, the head of Google said.
Eric Schmidt, chairman and chief executive officer of Google, spoke to about 5,000 chief information officers and information technology executives in Orlando for a technology conference.
"All of these distinctions will completely go away," he said. "We're not trying to design the future. We're trying to invent it along the way ... This is about inventing the future, and we score ourselves based on whether our customers like it."
Teens today consume information much differently on the Web and are able to juggle various forms of information seamlessly, he said.
Streams of information will increase as connections grow faster, and if web surfers feel as though they are drowning in information, it is because a fundamental shift is occurring to user-generated content.
The success of sites such as Facebook and Twitter are examples of this shift, he said.
"You will tend to listen to other people," he said.
The problem, of course, is how to organise all the information, he said. It is the fundamental problem facing Google, a company offering many products but built on a web search engine that trolls for information, gathers it and ranks it for users.
Schmidt asked rhetorically how, for instance, Google might be able to rank a user's individual tweets.
Schmidt spoke at the Gartner Symposium/Itxpo at the Walt Disney World Dolphin and Swan Hotel. The four-day conference ends on Thursday local time.
