  • What the advertiser failed to recognize, Chernin said, is that the MySpace homepage has as many viewers every day as the SuperBowl has once a year. (Of course, there’s a good argument that MySpace visitors aren’t quite as engaged with the content as SuperBowl viewers are.)
  • Mobile is attractive because of its scale. It “is by far the most penetrated device on earth,” he said. “So it’s this enormous distribution platform, but by definition you’re not going to be watching two-hour movies.

  • Q: What about mobile? Schmidt: Our wireless initiative was a perfect outcome. It was the cost of an outcome. I am on the board of Apple.

The Phone is tehfirst one with a really functional browser. We show full ads, so that is a huge for revenues/ The new category of apps that have not come out yet really is a breakthrough. One winner of the Android apps, it looks around, names the buildings it sees and tells you what is happening inside of them. That is a really interesting product. In mobile there are a lot od product that have that WOW factor, because of the use of GPS. I think all the most interesting next-generation social apps will be mobile.

We do provide the federal government with some search and other services through our [government] sales group.
