"The press should continue to feed [Google's] arrogance as much as possible": Bill Gates

"We don’t think that is our job": Bill Gates

I just came across this article while searching on Yahoo!, my search engine of choice. Bill Gates recently gave an exclusive interview to Computing.co.uk. In his interview Bill Gates completely dismissed Google as a serious threat. Gates said,

‘Google is great, they are smart people, the press should continue to feed their arrogance as much as possible.’

Bill Gates later said about Google:

‘They say they are going to organise the world’s information. Well, we don’t think that is our job. We think you need to get tools to editors and subject experts to let them organise the world’s information. There is a bit of a philosophy difference here. The only sure winner is the consumer.’
